An Overlooked Blessing
“I’m grateful that Heaven operates on a ‘need to know’ basis. It’s one of life’s most overlooked blessings.” Sarah Ban Breathnach By: Gabriela Yareliz When life squeezes us and wrings us like an old cleaning rag, we often wish we could have seen whatever we are going through ahead of time. Usually, our wish toContinue reading “An Overlooked Blessing”
The Seasonal Shift
“We put all this pressure on ourselves after watching movies where a girl moves to New York at the age of twenty-three and somehow has a job that you could only get if you have fifteen years of work experience. She lives in an apartment you could only get if you were a literal millionaire.”Continue reading “The Seasonal Shift”
Books
“Books are as essential as breathing. In my experience, when going down for the third time, it was often word-to-word resuscitation that saved the day.” Sarah Ban Breathnach

“I Deserve This”
“I swore to God, make me that person. Make me so powerful that when a woman in her forties walks into a room, and they tell her, ‘Stay in your lane,’ she says my name. Even the ocean will know you arrived. That’s how you die. You die in that way; that the legacy thatContinue reading ““I Deserve This””
The Violence of Growth
“Growth is violent like that. It doesn’t happen without endings. Without death. Without the parts of you that are clinging to control finally being ripped away. So I’ll ask you: how many times have you already died? And maybe… the next chapter of your growth is waiting for you on the other side of theContinue reading “The Violence of Growth”
