what have you sacrificed in your life and what/who for? (1 Viewer)

[kodoku]

what have you given away and what have you (or someone else) gained instead?

Spoiler: me

I feel like I just give myself away piece by piece and day by day, sometimes even for people I don't even like, people I don't really believe deserve this from me... but I think it comes from not thinking much of myself, so I try to at least be of some kind of use which is wrong and terrible, actually. Maybe it's become a habit... there are countless examples of this. It's something I did even as a child, trying to save my family. I remember at some point believing love is sacrifice, but I think I was just living a false truth taught by an unfortunate life.. now that I think about it, I feel like I kind of life as a sacrifice. Well, this sounded far more depressing than I was planning on lol, sorry xD

I have sacrificed everything for my sister, my freedom, my will, and my future. I hope she realizes that one day. I love her so much.

I have sacrificed my me time or private time, to make amends with both my parents.
We had our fights and misunderstandings over the years, but now we are golden.

I'd regret it forever, if I couldn't forgive and forget and make up with my folks.

My time on college ig.

I should've done whatever was the easiest from the beginning, it wouldn't be that big of a waste since i'm a public servant anyway.

As you said, I also believe in some way life is a sacrifice.
I think this sound kinda depressing but there's no other way to put words into it
I've sacrificed my few chances (if I ever get them?) to be happy and made bad choices thinking about other's feelings, we take time but we learn that sometimes our feelings have to come first and this is NOT being selfish I used to believe I was being selfish now I see all the things I've lost trying to make people "happy" with me on the past.
It is not too much to say that I made my own life hell by sacrifices, now I have to endure it.
I hope you can find peace very soon, with yourself, hope things get better.

I think I always think about others and their feelings first which makes me neglect what I would have wanted. I am someone who hardly can say no so that can be troubling and somewhat be a self-sacrifice
