When and for what is sacrifice the right act? Is it necesarry to sacrifice in order to reach a better place in life?
There are many definitions of sacrifice, however for this post, I am talking about sacrifice as an act of giving up something valued for the sake of something else regarded as more important or worthy
As I write about this, I am cognizant that it is Veteran's Day, a day when we honor the great sacrifices of members of the military who have sacrificed their time, health, and even their lives for the welfare of our country.
While we naturally like to have all we can, I believe it is true that most of us have to make some sacrifices when it comes to the sake of something more important or worthy.
What sacrifices have you made, and what sacrifices will you make in the days ahead to reach a life and service you value greatly? What sacrifices of those you know inspire you and lead you ahead?
As I reach for a some longed-for goals and pursuits, I will have to make some sacrifices, and acknowledging that will help me to do what is needed. Onward.
