Friday Glee: July 8, 2016

“I have come to trust life completely, trust even the times when I forget how to trust at all, trust that life doesn’t always go according to plan, because there is no plan, only life, and even the times of great uncertainty hold supreme intelligence, and sometimes you have to fall to stand more fearlessly,Continue reading “Friday Glee: July 8, 2016”

The Gates of the Forest

By: Gabriela Yareliz Today, Elie Wiesel passed away, at the age of 87. Most of us remember his memoirs and the Night Trilogy. That death march in the book Night is one that few forget. I have been fascinated by Wiesel’s writing and thoughts on religion. Being a survivor of the Holocaust hints to theContinue reading “The Gates of the Forest”

Reflections Before Bedtime #87

By: Gabriela Yareliz Today, I was reminded of a friend of mine. Maybe, it’s more appropriate to use the term ex-friend. We had a weird dynamic and a weirder falling out.

Thursday Badinage: May 19, 2016

I am stuck in a long line that is not moving. So painful. So, I thought I would catch up on some reading materials. I saw this quote on the lovely Kusha Alagband’s Instagram. “I am not quite sure if I believe in the Law of Attraction. There were things I wanted in my lifeContinue reading “Thursday Badinage: May 19, 2016”

Reflections Before Bedtime #86

By: Gabriela Yareliz I hope we can remember, as Job did, that God’s majesty is unsearchable… “By His power He stilled the sea…” (Job 26:12) Job basically says that as long as we have breath in us, the spirit of God is in our nostrils (Job 27:3). May we hold fast to wisdom and holdContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #86”
