By: Gabriela Yareliz Sometimes, our thoughts get tangled like string, and the spool keeps running until it finds a wall that stops it. What if it finds a staircase that allows it to completely unravel? Sometimes, our hearts swell. And we aren’t sure if it got bruised or if it fell. Or perhaps, it simplyContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #50”

Reflections Before Bedtime #49

This Week’s Theme
By: Gabriela Yareliz Hard work+belief=results (See Monday Inspiration: November 30, 2015). When I need a pep talk or extra slap in the face– the video in this post is my go-to. It reminds me to always keep hustlin’. So, if you are weary from long hours at work, struggling through a moment of transition orContinue reading “This Week’s Theme”

The Hutchcast (2015) By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s a new week, and you can accomplish anything. This past weekend was a refreshing time with family and friends. I hope you ate yummy food like I did.

Monday Inspiration: November 23, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz This will be a simple, no-frill post. I don’t have too much to say. I know. Rare. Maybe that is a lie, though. We’ll see how long this post ends up being. This weekend was pretty introspective. Apparently, I appreciate the art of making myself uncomfortable. So, after a weekend of lovelyContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: November 23, 2015”

Monday Inspiration: November 2, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz On Sunday, the NYC Marathon sliced my neighborhood in half. I kept wondering how I would make it to the other side. Then, when I needed to cross, the runners were gone and so were the barricades. Isn’t that how we spend most of our time? Worrying about things that will runContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: November 2, 2015”
You
By: Gabriela Yareliz You are a warm southern night, a barefoot stroll under strong magnolias. You are a strange rain that takes me by surprise. You are a soft palm branch rustle, coaxing me to unwind. You are a moon full of light; you reveal a path unknown and act as guide. You are aContinue reading “You”
Reflections Before Bedtime #45
By: Gabriela Yareliz When confronted with the topic of failure, Thomas A. Edison could have said many things. Aren’t his many journals of “failed” attempts at the lightbulb the ones that fill the Smithsonian Museum of American History? Edison once said, “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.” Someone wiselyContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #45”
Friday Glee: October 23, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz This hellish little week had to be over at some point, right? I hope you accomplished everything on your list (I am very much a list person; maybe you have another way you tackle your tasks). It’s time for some self care. If you are a woman, then maybe this means makingContinue reading “Friday Glee: October 23, 2015”
