By: Gabriela Yareliz A new week begins, again.The pharmacy looks like a Christmas wonderland. I was walking through Little Italy, and there are already ‘Merry Christmas’ light banners shimmering in the night above the streets. Still no sign of eggnog, anywhere. This is frustrating, but anyway… This weekend was a good weekend. I saw oldContinue reading “Happy Week: November 8, 2015”

Chasers of the Light
Poem from Chasers of the Light: poems from the typewriter series by Tyler Knott Gregson. I count the syllables of your laughter and wait for the line breaks of your long deep breaths. I may be a writer but you are a poem and you spill out like ink onto the paper of our days.Continue reading “Chasers of the Light”
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.

Reflections Before Bedtime #42
[Image from @PatriciaManfield. This photo just says, “Boss.”] By: Gabriela Yareliz They say a photo is worth a thousand words. It seems that these days we live off of illusions. Many times, things aren’t what they seem, and people aren’t who they project themselves to be. We hide behind masks and large sunglasses–hoping no oneContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #42”
A Goethe Moment
By: Gabriela Yareliz The perfect message for a tough week that has no end in sight. “I have come to the frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element. It is my personal approach that creates the climate. It is my daily mood that makes the weather. I possess tremendous power to make life miserableContinue reading “A Goethe Moment”
Monday Inspiration: October 5, 2015
By: Gabriela Yareliz Hello, my people! On Friday, I spent a good amount of time fighting with my umbrella in torrential rains. Thank God I wear shorts under my skirts because the wind was looking for its next Marilyn. By the end of the day, I looked like I had walked through hurricane Joaquin– hair-in-mouthContinue reading “Monday Inspiration: October 5, 2015”
Reflections Before Bedtime #41
By: Gabriela Yareliz “I am poor, but if I see eggnog, I will buy some.” It’s night. There is a full moon covered in a frosting made of fog. My limbs are aching after an extremely long and delightful walk. Today was beautiful. Walking is like a drug for me. It was a great dayContinue reading “Reflections Before Bedtime #41”
