I Am Sabrina

Namely_Marly_Name_Stories_Sabrina

My name feels just right to me. But I came close to being called something entirely different. My parents met in The Haight Ashbury in 1968. My dad was a music producer and club owner. My mom was a flower child. Five years later, when they were choosing names, one of their top choices was willow summer Marie. To know me is to know that I am not a Willow Summer Marie. I'm so grateful my grandmother had a good, strong hand in changing their minds.

I am Sabrina.

A Walk in Beauty

The poem She Walks in Beauty accompanies photographs of an early morning summer sunrise.

An early morning photography expedition with my hubby left me feeling inspired by the beauty of nature.

I was also reminded of the poem, She Walks in Beauty. "She walks in beauty, like the night; Of cloudless climes and starry skies; And all that's best of dark and bright." Oh, that we could all walk in beauty today.
