And got it. By: Gabriela Yareliz Yesterday, I heard Dr. Edie speak, and her words touched my heart. Deeply. I went out for a walk, and I had that warm feeling— that feeling when you go, I think God just spoke to me just now. It stayed on my mind. Sometimes, we are faced withContinue reading “Asked for a Sign”

By: Gabriela Yareliz Next week, we’ll start September. Everyone keeps asking where summer went. I don’t know. My seasonal transitional cleaning is underway. Yesterday, I wiped down the kitchen cabinets, sorted through cans and refreshed extermination tools. I am satisfied with what I accomplished this week. This week, we lost many people, including the legendaryContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 08.28.26”

“Can you have one without the other? Unpublished work that’s really important to me burns a hole in my chest from the inside and the outside at the same time. I need to speak it and I need it to be heard.” Bertie Brandes

August
“This is how August feels to me, that strange moment while you’re on a swing when you aren’t going up or down but feel suspended in mid-air. Even the air outside feels still, like it’s between an inhale and an exhale, a pause between two pages of a book.” Jillian Hankins
This Week’s Favorites 08.07.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz What a week. Scott Lobaido flatlined and got brought back to life. He is still being iconic from his hospital bed. The humidity reached new levels. The NY Post called it “Caribbean” levels of humidity. Whatever it is— we feel it. I sweat so much this week. Yesterday, my jeans left myContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 08.07.26”
