The Sacrifice

When I was little, my mother said that life meant that you had to make sacrifices. But at the moment, I didn't understood what she meant. The only thing I was sacrificing was my ice cream, when I had to give it to my little brother.

In movies, I often saw characters that had to let go of things that they love. I still never knew, never cared to understand. After all, not everything in movies are true anyway.

But when I had to go through one myself, when I had to let go of the person I love, I finally understood. I understood, mum. I do.
