Sacrifices and Choices

Would you sacrifice your parents or your spouse?
Would you sacrifice your kids or your spouse?

I have an story for the first example. My mom is a Singaporean and my dad is an Indonesian. She CHOSE to move to Indonesia to be TOGETHER with my dad. She sacrificed her parents to spend time with my dad. So romantic.

The second answer is my kids. I chose this because you have one 'perfect' wife. The next one will have similar characteristics like the first one BUT can NEVER be as good as the first one. My kids will have characteristics from me and my spouse but would not inherit completely everything from my spouse or me. If I have a child again at least I can have some genes from my spouse. But with another wife, then I can't have the genes from the first wife. Which makes me sad.

Life is full of sacrifices and choices. You make some good ones and bad ones and try not to look back. They are filled with advantages and disadvantages. As we are all human, we do not have the psychic powers/ ability to foresee the future thus we are all forced live with the consequences that we made.

First of all, sacrifices and choices are different. A sacrifice can be a choice but a choice cannot be a sacrifice. To me, both makes a significant and humongously huge impact. Without those two, we cannot gain experience and better ourselves. We need to fall down first to learn our mistakes. They are very important in our lives.

Choices to me are simple things. Its like E math, requires little or no thinking whatsoever. Sacrifices are quite complex and requires a profound mind and consumes a lot of time. Its like a car crash, once you crash, you cannot rewind it and try to avoid it. You have to go through it like it or not.

Back the the question:

Would you sacrifice your parents or your spouse?
Would you sacrifice your kids or your spouse?

Its your choice to make. I did how about you?
