In my life I have had to make a couple of sacrifices either to make someone feel better or to help them. My biggest one was for my best friend at the time was at a unhappy point in her life. She had a lot of depression problems but was not telling her parents or anyone but close friends like me. She called me to say goodbye one night and I was confused at first but when she told me she had overdosed on pills and felt the end coming I knew I had to make a sacrifice. I called the poison hotline at first to check and they said to contact help right now. I later called 911 and she had to have her stomach pumped but ended up living. She did not talk to me for a month untill she forgave me and was glad I was there to help her. I sacrificed our friendship to try to save her 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.
