About Me


virb.com/sarahabrego
I am defined by my beliefs, my family, and my friends. With that in consideration, I am more than content with the person I am...I wouldn't change a thing.
I drink coffee
I like to think, to write, to talk about thoughts.
I miss having long hair. I'm growing it out.
I never get tired of organzing things.
I like being tall...this is a recent occurance.
I would LOVE to learn to fly a plane.
I am a paradox on many levels.
I want to go to Thailand. Budapest. Turkey. Norway. New Zealand. Uganda. Everywhere!
I want everyone to know my God...to know He loves them. HE LOVES YOU. People I know will go to hell, forever, and that kills me...I do what I can about it.
"Though my soul may set in darkness, it will rise in perfect light; I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night." Sarah Williams
"Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God; for I shall yet praise Him, the help of my countenance and my God." Psalm 43:5
"Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and discouraged in your soul." Hebrews 12:1-3
"The pain now is part of the happiness then." CS Lewis
"Had I not seen the Sun/ I could have borne the shade." Emily Dickinson
"My soul is restless, Oh, Lord, until it rests in Thee." St. Augustine
"Hope is the thing with feathers/ That perches in the soul/ And sings the tune without the words/ And never stops at all." Emily Dickinson
"The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him." Ralph Waldo Emerson
