I’ve learned a lot of things this year. However, the concept of sacrifice is the one that stands out the most. Everyone sacrifices at least one thing in life. There are just too many forms of sacrifice to begin with.
Everyone wants to live a life that is well-balanced and comfortable, to be successful, to have a soulmate and a partner who understands them deeply, to be someone who dares to speak the voices that have been whispering in their head, and, of course, to make memories with the people they love the most.
But if you think about it again, is there anything in life that ever comes in handy without sacrifice? We make numerous sacrifices without realising it. Every great achievement necessitates some level of sacrifice on our part. Because if you’re not willing to sacrifice, nothing is ever going to be yours.
Ask yourself what you have sacrificed this year. Friendship, happiness, time, love, and energy. Anything could be it. Sometimes we even make sacrifices for other people so that they can be content, free of pain, and live the life they want.
I personally enjoy making sacrifices, if not for myself, then for those around me, regardless of whether or not I know them. Since the more I sacrifice, the more good things are coming my way. The more I sacrifice, the more smiles I am able to see in daylight and in darkness on other people around me.
The point is that, regardless of how much we despise giving up time to study or give back to the community, sacrifices are not the bad guys in our lives. But if we do not dare to sacrifice even a slight portion of our time, then we wouldn’t be able to help ourselves become a better person, a better human being in this world. Sometimes we even have to give up our love for someone we can’t have at some point in our lives. or a friendship you believe has been harmful to you. It has got to begin somewhere.
Therefore, I guess you have got to keep on distilling the love for sacrifices, for that is where true happiness and success will bloom in your life.
Life is like chess. Sometimes you have to make sacrifices to win.
