SACRIFICES ...a choice.

Sacrifice comes in many packages. All is done for a purpose. All is given to value a worth. All has a common denominator- choice.
I have given and lost a lot; some with satisfactions and some with regrets. But everything, no matter what, it all started with a choice.
I was blessed with luck during the past years. everything went smooth- career, education, and even luxury. But seems that with eveything given has a synonymous sacrifice. I had a good career but had an empty heart. I had an education and a luxury of things but also had a limited world. Despite all, I know I am lucky compared to others. I know I should be grateful for opportunity comes once. and I was really grateful. But as people say, good things sometimes do not last. Only those who are really meant for you will last.
Now, I have a career but not that satisfying, financially speaking. Maybe enough for me but not for my family. I have my continuing education, and it is still fine now. I have things now but not in luxury. The latter ended when I had made a choice. A choice which they say selfish but I beg to disagree. Nothing is considered when you give yourself a chance to be happy after all you the sacrifices that you have made. With this, some say, I have it, everything was in my hands but I just do not know how to compromise. Maybe yes, maybe no. What I know is that I had made a choice...a sacrifice.
It was a choice which I do not regret. It was a choice that I know something worth-sacrificing. I know it is worthy to have him and it is worth the sacrifice. I lost much things, but I have the best treasure in my life now.
I have faith that God will always support me and always lead me in a way that He knows will be best for me.
