308 Entries for “sacrifice”

  1. To sacrifice, to go without, to give up in lieu of something for necessary. We no longer understand how to make sacrifices because we live in a world where we can have everything we want at any time.

  2. Sacrifice is the deepest sign of caring for something or someone else. It’s giving up a part of yourself for someone else. A purely selfless act. Real friends are the ones you’ll make sacrifices for. How many people do you know would rip off a chunk of themselves (metaphorically…I hope?) and give it to you?

  4. I sacrificed myself for him. I know, who would sacrifice themselves for their enemy? I didn’t plan to. I just wanted someone else to live, but I realized, I would be killed, instead of him.

  5. what i’ve had to do for 16 years of my life now. had to give up so many things beacuse my family couldn’t afford things. i’ve given up things for my family. and they’ve given up things for me. sacrifice is a one way street. but i guess that’s something you never understood.

  8. Everyday. It happens everyday. In the night, she sacrifices peaceful dreams for compilations of To Do lists for dawn.

  9. sacrifice is when you do something when you don’t have to. Like human sacrifice. ussually the human doesn’t want to be sacrificed. Or cleaning your room, you have to sacrifice your free time to do a chore

  10. Nothing needs to be sacrificed. No, I mean no one. Some things do need to be sacrificed. Lets say you are doing an activity that makes you literally want to kill yourself, that can be sacrificed. Just saying.

  11. I will make whatever sacrifice you think will make me worthy to be at one with the stellar stardust as it falls from its celestial berth to the plebian village in which I dwell.

  12. I’ve never had to make extreme physical sacrifices. But my emotional ones have taken a heavy toll on my heart. They weigh tons in my chest, but are weightless in the air. So they drift away so easily, and I’m left shaking, knowing what I’ve just let go is big. It feels big. Big in my chest, big in my brain.

  13. stop staring and
    look at me
    you don’t,
    you don’t have to do this
    you know,
    you don’t have to do anything
    they tell you.
    stop.
    you don’t have to sacrifice everything we’ve
    built together
    please, please.
    you know that you’re falling
    right into their trap
    walking right into
    their hands,
    don’t you?
    don’t do this
    you can escape,
    leave my bloody heart
    intact
    and save me the pain
    of watching you
    dissolve
    into the sky

  14. Its when you give something up for someone/something else. I think sacrifice is worth it when you do it for someone you love. When you do it for someone you love, it doesn’t feel like a sacrifice. It feels like the right thing to do. Always.

  15. It did not come as a surprise to anyone. We all knew what had to be do if we were to survive and return home. I would have to sacrifice my life for my friends, a situation that could have been avoided if only they had listen to me in the first place.

  17. Sacrifice is something which is hard to do, and we do this usually to help us or someone else. We sacrifice things every day, for example if we want to have a nice figure, we sacrifice eating chocolate or some other indulgent treat. In history there have been some famous sacrifices, including many in the Bible.

  18. those ancient religions where they used to kill both babies and mothers, mesopotamia, and how sick it was. But that’s how their gods spoke to them. Can we judge them on their brand of madness just as we now have ours? We, who are also harbingers of early death. And thus, the pages of history flip on as we surround ourself with grim tales.

  19. sacrifice is one of the most noble things you can do, you literally only can do it if you are mature enough..the sacrifice of letting someone go, the sacrifice of giving up something that you loved. It shows you have grown up. Its shows you have compassion.

  20. I will bleed for you.

  21. You made the ultimate sacrifice for me. Gave up everything you had and everything you were. A thousand years could never repay what you have done for me my master. I thank you until the ends of the earth. I am eternally in your debt.

  22. It’s what you do for family and friends no matter what.

  23. It’s a matter of sacrifice that gets you somewhere in this world, sacrificing your time to work, sometime you have to sacrifice the ones you love to get ahead in this world, but one thing I will never sacrifice is my freedom.

  24. when you sacrifice something you give up what you have, for something of someone else whom is special to you. acctually, it dosnt even have to be special to you. just anything you know, care for or anything else <3.

  25. Sacrifice is where you give up something because you love it. Sometimes we forget what sacrificing something can mean to something, and how grateful we are for others to sacrifice for us. This is what sacrifice is.

  26. I don’t really like to have to sacrifice things. I realize that you have to, at times. Like now, for me. I have had to sacrifice my time with Leo so that we can have a better and more prosperous future. But it’s not easy and I miss him a lot. I hope he will get things figured out soon so this particular time of sacrifice will be over.

  28. The alcohol stings. It washes away the remanence of true character. Yet, here I am again, sacrificing myself to indulgence. Silly, silly me. It is the morning after that I feel the most influenced.
