By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s raining inside of my train car. It’s not supposed to be raining in here, but there is a steady drip-drip. An Asian girl held out her hand and laughed, trying to catch a drop of the mystery liquid falling. I almost opened my umbrella in here, but instead moved to anotherContinue reading “A Rainy Day”

One week closer to fall weather, my friends. After rain, NYC has felt considerably cooler this week. It’s nice to feel a breeze when you walk. Bless. IG is filled with two camps— “last of summer” and “it’s fall”. I finished Nicole Sach’s book, and it never got better. I don’t think I have readContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 08.14.26”
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”
No Skipping
“People skip the parts of themselves they’re not ready to face. They avoid the very things that, once they’re willing to face them, open the door to profound growth. Those are the things that ultimately lead to healthier relationships, a happier life, and a lighter relationship with yourself. But because they’re uncomfortable, people keep skippingContinue reading “No Skipping”

A happy August to you! Those of us who aren’t summer people are hanging by a thread, elevating prayers in hopes that we can survive the next two months and arrive to a cooler October. The countdown is real. They do this thing in my neighborhood called Summer Stroll, and it’s always cool to walkContinue reading “This Week’s Favorites 08.01.26”
The Games Men Play
By: Gabriela Yareliz The news coming out of Ceuta, Spain is disturbing and eerily similar to scenes the U.S. border experienced in the past presidential administration. Borders overrun— and not by women and children or even families— no, by military age men. I have seen videos of local women crying and displaying an emotion thatContinue reading “The Games Men Play”
Car Life
By: Gabriela Yareliz Have you truly lived if you didn’t have a car that needed bottles of anti-freeze in the trunk, a gallon of water in the back, bottles of power steering fluid or oil or frequent stops to fill up the tires? Like, what is life without a car you have stories about? Also,Continue reading “Car Life”
Reflections on an Equation
By: Gabriela Yareliz There is no good greater than God’s presence. And so much of life becomes a question of what evil, and sometimes what mediocre, lesser good are we willing to surrender for the greatest good of all— to see His face. To stand in His presence for eternity and to worship. So muchContinue reading “Reflections on an Equation”
Seek Him Now
“Seek the LORD while he may be found; call upon him while he is near;” Isaiah 55:6 By: Gabriela Yareliz The verse above has been stirring in my mind for some weeks now. I feel this internal urgency. I have noticed there are others who feel it, too. It’s no surprise many feel something isContinue reading “Seek Him Now”
A Hope For Those Feeling Broken
By: Gabriela Yareliz Jena Covello is a household name— she is the founder of Agent Nateur. She posts a lot of health content, specifically around hormones and endometriosis, as this started her journey with Agent Nateur (finding/creating a clean deodorant). Her recent posts had me sad. The woman went through like one year pain-free, andContinue reading “A Hope For Those Feeling Broken”
