Have you ever had to choose between something you've wanted to get rid of your entire life and something that you have to keep because you're afraid of losing it? Have you ever had to choose between destroying something you hate and saving something you love? Selflessness is a word I was never able to use to describe myself. Others wouldn't use it to describe me. Even the people closest to me never used it. Until I had to make a choice. A sacrifice, if you will. A sacrifice that would change everything as I knew it. As my friends knew it. As the people of the world knew it. It was a sacrifice only I could make, and only if I chose to make it. As I stood there, surrounded by so many strong people and emotions, I realized what I had to do would affect everyone in a different way. Tears gushing down my face, my loved ones screaming and yelling, half gone, half still fighting. I had made up my mind. I closed my eyes, and for the first time in my entire life, felt balanced.
