But the pop royalty said she still wants to do the right kind of projects later this year. The talented performer is taking time off for an extended vacation this year. </div><div><br/></div><div>'<i>Siguro yung</i> project <i>talaga na hindi lang</i> self-fulfilling <i>eh, kundi yung alam mong makakapagbigay ng</i> honor <i>kay</i> Lord <i>at saka sa mga</i> inspiration <i>sa mga tao, yung magbibigay ng magandang pakiramdam at paniniwala sa kanila. Mag-iiwan ng magandang mensahe sa kanila. Sana</i> both (singing and acting yun) <i>di ba</i>?” she shared during her Myra E event held last June 9 at the Highlands Steakhouse in Pasig.</div><div><br/></div><div>As one of the most positive role models in the country today, Sarah expressed that it is important to her to inspire her fans and supporters. As she turns 28 next month, Sarah said she has learned what is most valuable to be considered successful in life. </div><div><br/></div><div>'Very important sa simula yung success mo with your relationships ‘<i>di ba</i>?<i> Siyempre </i>work in progress yang relationship mo with the Lord <i>tapos sa</i> family <i>mo</i> and then<i> mag-re-reflect na yan sa trabaho mo</i>. <i>Hindi man ikaw ang maging</i> the best <i>pero importante </i>to be a good person. </div><div><br/></div><div>“<i>Kasi</i> when you always try to become the best person, <i>nakakalimutan mo na yung</i> values <i>mo, nakakalimutan mo na yung ano ba yung nararamdaman ng ibang tao, meron ba akong natatapakan na ibang tao? So yun yung aalagaan mo, yung </i>peace <i>na meron ka sa puso mo, sa isip mo at sa relasyon mo sa ibang tao. Wala kang kaaway. Wala kang sinasaktan, ayun</i>,” she told PUSH.</div><div><br/></div><div>Sarah also admitted she is still striving to do her best in honor of her parents and especially her dad as Father’s Day approaches. </div><div><br/></div><div>'<i>Si Daddy naman ang kanyang hilig lang </i>is nature, beauty ng creation ni Lord, <i>mga hayop, sobrang mahal niya yung mga </i>dogs. <i>Kahit anong hayop mahal niya</i>. <i>Para siyang may</i> special connection <i>talaga sa kahit anong klase ng hayop. So ano lang </i>I will try my best lang to be, <i>Siyempre</i> I will never be a perfect daughter to my father nor to my mother but ‘<i>yun nga, bigay yung kung ano yung makakaya na maging mabuting anak sa kanila</i>,” she said. </div></div><div><br/></div>
