My Sacrifice
I think that you shouldn’t go so far with sacrifices but it a lot depends on who you are sacrificing too. If you are sacrificing to a boyfriend/girlfriend you can sacrifice a lot but you shouldn’t go too far with it because then your relationship could become bad. Also if you’re sacrificing to your family then you should sacrifice more to them because they will always be there for you no matter what especially your parents because they do a lot for us and sacrificed a lot for us too.
I finally told him that i would no longer go to dinner. I was still going to talk to him and hang out with him in school. Only cause he is normally around when I am with him. He also likes that idea because there is more than 6 poeple around when we hang out and they are not just my friends they are his too. I still do not think that I should have to stop doing something if it makes ne happy, but i want him to be happy and if that is how i have to do then so be it. I just wont be happy about hearing about the dinners I miss and the fun that I missed out on. I love my boyfriend and I don't want to loose him and I don't want to hurt him. I just want him to be happy.

I would give up somethings for a loved one. It's a choice to make a sacrifice, you may not be happy, but you can really help someone. It depends who it was, I would give up alot for my child. But I can honestly say that I wouldn't give up my life for a lover. There are pleanty of things that can be done without sacrifice, such as improvising. But for a child, you need to raise them and give them the attention they need, so sacrifice is a definate.

Sacrifices
I wouldn’t say that this is the biggest sacrifice I have ever had to make for someone I care for, but it is definitely the first one to come to mind because I was pretty pissed that I couldn’t see my friends for a good half a year. I think the farthest I would ever go would be to give mostly everything. If I truly care for that person I would have no problem sacrificing a lot for them, no matter to cost or repercussions. There is no length I wouldn’t go to for a real friend.

A Sacrifice to make
People shouldn't go far. To sacrifice anything, whether it be love or time, it's limitless. There is no limit that people can sacrifice. The only thing that is limited though is money. Money is limited. People can't spent millions and millions of dollars for sacrificing.

Pick Your Poison
My parents, on the other hand, make massive sacrifices each day for me. Most of the time, they are willing to give up on what they want to do so that I can do what I want to do. What's more, is that despite what they do for me, I still get into fights pretty much every other day with them; sometimes over very stupid things. I'm not saying I regret it, and that's just the thing: they know this. They acknowledge that I can often be a little [word omitted], and despite all that they go on treating me as best they can, at appropriate times. In that aspect, alone, they sacrifice so much for me.
So this just begs the question: "How much should you sacrifice?" I feel as though it's highly situational. For example, if I saw a child about to be hit by a car, I'd try and save them, even if it cost me my life. My reasoning is simple: the child is younger than I am. I would not be so willing to sacrifice so much if it was a man in his forties about to be hit by a car. So you see, it's also about how you feel about the sacrifices you're making. In Of Mice and Men George is willing to sacrifice his life (not phsyically) for Lennie. This is worth it, to him, just for the companionship, but I would never do it, because, to be completely honest, people like Lennie would never truly amount to anything substantial and, as the book proves, would get into ungodly amounts of trouble that would eventually lead to something being done about it.
they love me, they love me not?
But with my mom I dont think she has really made true sacrafices for me. I mean she has given me things but she always yells at me for the things that she gives me. Whats up with that? But I am sure that in the future that something will come up where I am going to have to make a big sacrafice. And I am sure that I will make it for the better good.
sacrifice
They bring me where I need to go. They buy me food. They buy me clothes. They provide me with a place to sleep. They let me shower. They let me watch television. They let me go on the computer. They pay for my cell phone bill. They help me with things. They let me hang out with friends. They let me go to the gym and workout. They let me play lacrossee in the spring. They let me play basketball at prince hill in Brooklyn.

Sacrifice
My mom also supports my passion for sports so much she wouldn't let me get a job this spring. She wanted me to focus on track and school, and she didn't want me to have to worry about working. Since I didn't have a job I couldn't pay for gas for my car. So my mom paid for all my gas so I could drive to school and where ever else I needed to go. My mom has sacrificed all of this for me because she loves me. She strongly supports what I do and enjoys the sports I do. She is always there for me at every meet, even if she has work that day, she will take the day of only to watch me run 2 minutes and 30 seconds an hour away. I appreciate all she does for me. She helps keep my head high and helps me believe in myself.
Sacrifice
I think that was over the limit to sacrafice myself but it was good because my friend didn’t go to jail. The very limit would be if someone you loved killed somebody and you took the blame. It is better for others to face the consequences if they do something that bad. You need to be aware of how much trouble your sacrifice can get you in.
sacrifice
Everybody makes sacrifices for their loved ones once in awhile. Some people would say that there is no limit for how far you should go when sacrificing. I'd have to disagree with this. I believe that there is a certain point where you are sacrificing too much. If your entire life revolves around helping this one person then it might be too much. Like if you are sacrificing the chance to have a spouse and kids, or have friends, or keep a job then you may be sacrificing too much. George sacrifices a lot for Lennie. He plans pretty much plans on taking care of him for the rest of his life. He planned to buy a house just for him and Lennie. He was always losing jobs because of Lennie and couldn't go to the whore house because he was saving for the house and he couldn't meet a girl to marry because he always had to watch Lennie and make sure he wasn't getting in any trouble.
Sacrifice SWAG
It all started with me making plans to hang out with some friends. And, you see, I have a very busy schedule of school, work and leisure time. So when I had a day off that I hadn't had in a while, I decided I would go spend it with my friends. My parents are extremely busy, more so my mother. They work in Groton and I do not see them alot. She happened to have the same day off as me and she said that she missed me. So what I did was tell my friends I couldn't hang out and instead I went to hang with my mom. And this action made my mom very happy and benefitted her. So sometimes you don't have to make big sacrifices to make someone happy.
Sacrifice in my Life
I believe that if you believe something is worth sacrificing for the good of someone else you should go for it. I think this because like in my case you can end up saving a life or truley helping someone through a hard time. I think that there is a point where you can sacrifice to much for someone if your spending all of your time helping them because although I believe you should always put someones well being before your own there comes a time where you just need to be happy yourself too and not just live for making others happy.
In my opinion, there is'nt much of a limit of how far someone should go for those they love. If the sacrifice you chose to do puts you in danger, then it's not worth it. You should also consider what the outcome of the sacrifice. When someone sacrifices something for those they love, they should feel great because they're helping the one they love.
There are Limits!
Sacrificing for others can have its limits. Dedicating everything can be ridiculous to me. Giving your whole life for someone else or a group of people can be very caring, but may not be the right choice. You are given one life to live; spending it all for someone else can defeat most of the point of even having one. Everyone wants to leave a mark I the world, but we also have to make marks for ourselves. Dedicating some things to other people is the nature of us humans and is very important to the meaning of our lives, but it does not mean that it is the absolute only reason. If you sacrifice all to one person, and then that person gave all they had to another, the chain would just continue. We need to make time and space for ourselves.
#Sacrifice
Is there a limit for when it comes to sacrificing for those you love? Each person should have their own limit when it comes to how far you should sacrifice for the people you love. You should do whatever it takes to make a loved one happy. You should sacrifice until you don't want to anymore, or until you have to much and you realized that you can't do it anymore. George will sacrifice his whole life for the one he cares about and then will realize it is to much for him, and then decided to kill the one he has been traveling with basically his whole life, Lennie.
Sacrifices
My parents have made many sacrifices in my life for me. One of them is they had to miss their best friend’s wedding. I was four years old and I was sick and I had to go to the hospital. In the wedding my dad was the best man and he missed it because he wanted to stay with me when I was sick. My mom was also with me and one of them could have gone to the wedding and the other one could have stayed but they both sacrificed the wedding to stay with me.
I think if you love something than you could sacrifice anything for them. For example if my girlfriend moved to California I would move there with her even if I had a very important job around here. I would sacrifice anything for my girlfriend and I don’t think that there is a limit when it comes to love.
BAMF
I think there is no limit to sacrificing for someone that you love. It all depends on how much you love for them and how much you are willing to risk for them.
Well I already written a paper on how far someone should go for those they love, so I have a good idea. I don't believe there is a limit. I think if you love them you should want to do whatever to make them happy. As long as whatever you are going to sacrifice is in reason, and you are willing to accept the consiquences, it should be fine. So no, I don't think there is a limit to sacrifice for those you love as long as you are okay with the sacrifice.

I Once Had A Dream

I don't really have any dreams for the future other than that and to have a good job and be happy. I just go with the flow so where ever I end up going is what I'm going to be doing. I hope I end up having a good job and a happy life and a decent amount of money. It's not too much to ask for so I think I can achieve it.
-Bieber Fever
why is it so freeking cold out!
But anyways after college and once I have a career I would like to travel to the Jamaican islands because it is really warm. Some experiences I would hope to have in the future are that I would like to go to a Celtics finals game, kill a zombie, and stay over at the Playboy Mansion. Right now those plans do not look to great but maybee one day i'll get an A. I believe all my dreams are realistic because everything is possible!
My Dreams

After college my dream is to get married and have a family. I have no desire to live in CT or New England for that matter. I want to move down south; were it is warm all the time. I hate the cold, winter, and snow. My parents also do not like the weather in New England and plan on moving south as well. I want the rest of my family, my aunts, uncles and cousins to follow my family and I south as well. I don't want to live far from them, because we are all so close and I want to keep that connection. If I could pick any place down south I would pick TE. I would pick TE because it's not too hot and it's not too cold, it is just perfect for me. In TE I want to be a soccer and/or track coach, like I mentioned before. I also love dogs and want to rescue them. I want to have dogs of my own and I want to foster dogs until they find a permanent home to live in. My dreams are realistic, I will have to work very hard to achieve them. They are realistic because I am very capable of doing everything that I want to do.
My Future
I think this dream is realistic because it is a realistic goal. I don't wish to live in a mansion and be a millionare but rather enjoy life for what I have. A career in law enforcment would be good because I can help people which I always like to do and that is a realistic dream. You can't compare my dreams to Gatsby's because I am not obsessing my life over one girl.
My Future
This is my deepest dream

I have very simple dreams, I want to grow up to be something big. I'm not poor, but my parents have to work their a*ses off to pay for me. I want to major in sociology and criminal justice and then head off to UConn Law to finish my education. I want to be a criminal defense attorney, and maybe even grow into a district attorney. I want to live in the city, have one of those nice-ass suites on the top floor of some huge building. I want to be married, start a family, I want the classic American lifestyle. I want a living room with the couch that loops around corners, I want a studio, I want a nice ride. I want people to look at me and go, "damn."
I want to travel, I want to retire early, and move somewhere beautiful. I want to provide for my mom when shes old, and give dad a reason to be proud. I want to make something for myself. I think my future holds promising things, because I have realistic dreams. I can achieve what I want through hard work, determination and a good mindset. Gatsby had dreams about a girl who loved him at one point, but had moved on. It's tough to think that someone just doesn't want you, but that's what it was like for him. Unfortunately, Gatsby's dreams were just too far fetched, while mine are tough, but achievable.
<3 Special_k keep dreaming. <3

My Hopes and Dreams
My dream college I want to go is Johnston State University. I want just want get out of Connecticut, but stay in New England. I don't know what my futur is going to be like. With my grade's fo far I don't if I'm going to be in a good college, but we'll see. My dreams are very realalistic, since everyone that a talent in music can get a degree in music. The only thing that I see that is unrealistic is traveling to all the eastern asian countries. The only thing that I need really is to have a lot of money saved a lot. Like my dad always say, some dreams can be acheived with a lot of luck and confidence.

Dreams
People have dreams and goals that they want to accomplish in life. Like many other I don't know what the future holds but I know what I would like to see in it. As for education I hope to go to college out of state. I don't know what I want to go for but Sooner or later I will find out what I want too do. As for a career I'm not sure what I would like to do, but all I know is that I would like it to be good paying and enjoyable. I would love to travel to many places around the world such as, England, Norway, and Sweden. I don't care if I travel to them tomorrow or in 20 years, all that matters is that I will go eventually.Dreams Blog
I believe that all of these dreams are pretty realistic, unlike Gatsby's. Gatsby hoped to get Daisy back which was very unrealistic. It had been a long time since they were together and Daisy had pretty much moved on. She was married, had a kid with Tom and was used to living wealthily. Also the 1920's wasn't really a time where a lot of people got divorces, like now. I'm pretty sure I can achieve all of my dreams. Traveling isn't really that hard. I just need to save up some money. I don't need to go to all of the places I want to visit, I'll be perfectly content to only go to a few. Plus I have my entire life to do that so I have plenty of time. College really isn't a problem either. I have enough money to go to college so I just have to get accepted. My grades are good so that will be pretty easy. I'm going to have to say that majority of people find somebody they really love and get married so I'm really not too worried about that. The only thing that may be slightly unrealistic is being very close with my friends decades from now. People move and grow apart and all that but I think that if we are this close now and make an effort to stay friends after we graduate it will work out pretty good.
Become Something

I've never worried about what my home would look like or be. All I want in my future is simply a place I am free to call home. I hope to travel the world and do whatever I can to influence others. I want to help those that need help most, regardless of whether I own millions of dollars in my future or hardly have much at all. I have always wanted to get married, but I would never let myself fall into marriage early in my life. I want to experience all that I can before I have to deal with a family or worry too much about my relationship with my partner. I do not want to be in my late twenties and have a family of five to worry about. I do not want to have to wait until the age of 50 or 60 to experience life, that is far too old to make memories that I could share with my children.
My dreams may seem realistic to some, but not others. My dreams seem achievable to me. In comparison to "The Great Gatsby" my dreams may seem too simple, but what I see in the book is that the lives of the character's are dull and pathetic. They have money and everything, but they don't know how to use it. In the book, most of the characters seem as though they would never make a mark in the world and only live to please their greed and die, never to touch the world.
My Dream
I really hope tht my future will turn out something like this, and I really think it could as long as I continue to do better in school and excel in grades and do well in college. I also think that my dream is realistic because I am going to school for culinary and it think as long as I work hard and do great things in college, I have a greater chance of being able to achieve this dream, and do so much more. I know I can achieve this dream, I have never been so determaind, in my life to be successful.
Dreams
To go along with being a DEP officer I would want to live in Alaska and be a DEP officer. Alaska seems like it would be a good place for me to live and get a job so I can do what I want to do. The only thing different about moving to Alaska is that you get to drive around on a quad with a gun and get bad guys doing illegal stuff on state property. I love being out doors and so I know I would love this job because DEP officers are always outdoors. Being a DEP officer is just like being a cop but better. Not everybody will hate you and you get to ride around on a fourwheeler all day out in the woods looking for anything going on.
Dreams for the Future
I would definitely say that my dreams are realistic. In my opinion, you can achieve anything. You can't just sit there and say you want something. You have to get up and make it happen. Since I want to be successful, going to college and getting an education would be the first step. Anything is possible if you put your mind into it.
Dreams

My future is success
After this school I will return for a free 6 month period of getting taught the fundamentals of getting a job with the qualifications I have received. Im then going to look for a job in New Haven or Boston working in a studio. I will also be able to support my hobby of drumming and put together a group on the side. I also want to get married at age 19 or 20 to Megan, my girlfriend of 18 months, and live with her in Boston. I want to have a boy named Isaac Thomas Welzant. This is all pretty much the plan I have for my future. I also want to go back to my begining school and study the business aspect of music.

Dreamin


The house is hardly 10 minutes away from QVCC and a shopping plaza, where we can get jobs. The house is big enough to have enough rooms for me and my friends to all have our own rooms and still have a room to turn into our game room. Like I said, we are all very excited and are planning far more than we need to, considering this is still a year away.
Another dream I have is the road trip. I have been planning a road trip with my friends for the summer of high school graduation. However, this is now far less likely since we will be having to pay rent and whatnot for the house and we will more than likely not be able to have the road trip and move into the house and be stable at the house afterwards. So instead, the road trip is going to be pushed back and we'll be having it after we finish our 2 years at QVCC.
My personal dream, however, is to be a writer. Before I do this, I plan on getting a Master's Degree in Creative Writing. If being a writer does fall through, and based on all the research on the career I've been doing, it does have a high chance of this, I believe, though have not confirmed anything yet, that I could get a job in the English department of a school with a Creative Writing Master's. Like I said, I am not 100% sure of this, but it seems, at the very least, probable.
Aside from that, I don't know what my future holds, and as much as I hope I can become a popular author, that isn't very likely. Still, as I often say and I'm sure others do too; if you don't hold onto the dream, you'll never see it fulfilled.
Big Spendah

I know that I someday want to be so incredibly famous that I’m in good connections with all of the famous people, music stars, television stars, people like that. I want to climb so high on the corporate ladder that I forget even where I started and make so much money that I don’t even know what to do with it all. I plan on having a huge house with lots of maids always cleaning it, and stocking up the built in club on the 5th floor. Its gunna be awesome.
The Dreams of a Ginger
I am completely aware of just how extremely unlikely that this would happen, thats why its a dream. I'm completely sure that all of my friends share the same dream, and there are few people that don't. The proof is found everwhere; lottery tickets, casinos, and a whole TV channel devoted entirely to game shows. Everyone wants to win $1,000,000 for their knowledge of trivia. I know I do, but I know I don't know enough random crap to do it. So I guess I'll keep dreaming.

Responsibility
For example if you accidentally ran into a car and injured somebody, you should have to take responsibility for that. If you refused to help or pay for damages cause by your negligence that is selfishness and not right. One time i accidentally broke a window, so i payed for it. That is the right thing to do.
Money or Love
I would not marry for money for many different reasons. First of all that is just wrong. You don’t marry someone just for their money. You marry for love. I know many people that marry for money but I hate that. I like to work for my own money I don’t need my wife giving money to me. Money ruins many relationships. I know people who were very rich and they got divorced because they were fighting about money.
Money gets in between many people and it is not right. If you actually love someone and they happen to be rich that is a much different thing but if you just marry for money that is just wrong. Love is not a word that you should just throw around. First you start out by dating someone. Then, most people realize that they are rich and then they want to marry them, but the other person does not know that. If the other person actually knew that than they would not get married and they would not have to waste their time and waste their money on divorce. Divorce is a really expensive thing to go through and if you don’t have to worry about that than never get yourself into a relationship that is only money related and not love related.
