Is The Word Sacrifice Still Taking Place?

Sacrifice For LoveI do wonder about trends looking around. So much of society is turning IT SEEMS into more about Me Me. What do they call an upcoming generation, the Me Me generation? So many postings written and photograhs and video on social media to DRAW ATTENTION to oneself. Made me think

Is The Word Sacrifice Still Taking Place?

I think of current parents of children and our own parents, great examples of sacrificing. Some of our friends have gone out of their way to sacrifice time, talent and treasure for us too. Agents do this for clients. We can only look to ourselves HOW WE may sacrifice for others. NOT GIVING TO GET. But doing something you would probably rather not do, spending time, spending money, listening, BEING THERE, mainly cause you just DARN CARE.

WORK ON YOUR SACRIFICING as part of your life.

It is a very NOBLE and HOPEFUL element in the world to do.

Yes, I do believe so. WE sacrifice and a lot of other sacrifice in order to make our world a better place. I hope that we give...not to receive but give from the heart..

My biggest sacrifice is to my four kids and it is an every day thing too.  As I am sure you do, every step I take involves how impacts them first.

Some of my sacrifice has to do with helping otherws which takes away from my own free time.

Gary,

How could any sane person disagree with your post?  Not me, but unfortunately, the post-modern mindset has creeped into every institution, most recently politics, in which we might be forced to sacrifice about the irresponsibilities of others... g

More and more people are not willing to sacrifice, they want it now and sacrifice is not part of the equation.

Good luck and success.

Hi Gary, I think there are still lots of people that sacrifice. Sadly, our culture seems to be changing and a lot more of our society does not know what it means and probably could care less.
