There are people who say what they mean. It’s rare, but they exist. It’s funny because when you meet one, you just know. It’s a frequency thing that syncs with your soul. When you find such a person, keep them close.

Love the Questions
“Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, toContinue reading “Love the Questions”
Sunrise Teacher
Sometimes, our greatest teachers are places. By: Gabriela Yareliz I was reading Cleo Wade’s newsletter about her new book launch, In a World of Sunrises, and she said: “New Orleans has been my greatest teacher in resilience. The wisdom of this city flows through many pages of this book.” It made me think of Florida.Continue reading “Sunrise Teacher”
Random Acts of Kindness by Erwin McManus
“God loves you, and He will never turn away.”
Discipline
“That’s why optimism is a discipline. It takes discipline to see the good when things are going bad. It takes discipline to see beauty in the midst of tragedy. It takes discipline to see the best in people when they let us down. It takes discipline to forgive when the person does not deserve it.Continue reading “Discipline”
This Week’s Favs 05.13.26
I write to you from one of the most zen places on earth— North Central Florida. It’s so still, all I hear now is the hum of the refrigerator, crickets outside and a slow drip coming from somewhere.

Today’s Dose of Nostalgia: Pluto and VHS
By: Gabriela Yareliz I saw this and smiled when I saw Pluto and its mixed status. Spoiler alert— now, while Mars is the most popular, Pluto remains on the list. As children, we were intrigued by it. Then, they told us it wasn’t a planet. We didn’t care. We are the generation that kept Pluto.Continue reading “Today’s Dose of Nostalgia: Pluto and VHS”
Restaurant Jordnær
This Chef Eric Kragh Vildgaard video left me with chills. It’s powerful. If you can’t watch the whole thing, please watch the last ten minutes. My husband and I like to watch these chef videos, and this is probably the coolest kitchen and culture I have seen so far. This chef’s life is quite remarkable,Continue reading “Restaurant Jordnær”
This Week’s Favs 05.01.26
By: Gabriela Yareliz It’s 2004 in my brain. My birthday is days away, and I am feeling nostalgic. I bought Bubbilicious watermelon gum 🍉. I saw the Laguna Beach reunion happened, and went back to old clips of the show. All the shows I wasn’t allowed to watch are on my mind, ha. Ahh theContinue reading “This Week’s Favs 05.01.26”
The Tunnel
By: Gabriela Yareliz I was on the train stuck in the tunnel. I was seated by the window, and I would lean toward the glass to see the darkness ahead. I was looking for the literal light at the end of the tunnel where the train takes the bridge toward Manhattan. We passed a deceivingContinue reading “The Tunnel”
