The Hours: July 23, 2016

(G sent this song to A at 7:24 am because she was inspired by it) Thoughts that floated around today (these were all brought up by different people): AM 9:42: “You see Jesus did not tell the woman who had been caught in adultery a conditional promise of ‘go, be good, and then I willContinue reading “The Hours: July 23, 2016”

Tuesday Badinage: July 19, 2016

By: Gabriela Yareliz Yesterday, I got to go to the prettiest part of Long Island. It was gorgeous; one of those neighborhoods that makes you want to bake apple pies, wear an apron, and buy matching napkin rings for a long table. There was a large park with lots of green grass and a gorgeousContinue reading “Tuesday Badinage: July 19, 2016”

Sunday Girl/Reflections: June 5, 2016

 By: Gabriela Yareliz I’ll try not to make this a rambling post, but I am just spilling out of my glass right now; overwhelmed with so much– good and bad. I feel it has been a while since I came by these parts. Life has been insanely busy. I feel like I barely sleep, andContinue reading “Sunday Girl/Reflections: June 5, 2016”

Monday Inspiration: May 30, 3016
