Unlocked Doors - part 2 - Sacrifice

Of the few definitions that sacrifice has, the one that would most resemble how it would be used when it comes to the sacrifice that a man would make and boys tend to shy away from is;
The surrender or destruction of something prized or desirable for the sake of something considered as having a higher or more pressing claim.
It is not easy to be a man. There are days that I just want to say home, spend time with my wife and enjoy the time that we have before we have our little daughter under our feet (since she is already in our hearts). But, part of my sacrifice is getting up early in the morning and going to work. Working hard each and every day so that my wife does not have to work. That’s right ladies and gentlemen, my wife (dual bachelors degree and all) wants to be a stay at home mom, and I support that 110%. Now, I am not saying that her job as a mother is going to be a cakewalk. I honestly believe that even if I work 60 hours a week, that her job will be much harder, and much more important. In the essence of time I will have to save that for another speech.
