Sacrifice

The only things we are required to sacrifice
are our ills, our defects, our weaknesses, 
our shortcomings, our limitations;
in brief, we are required to remove 
the personal self and its imperfections from our world of existence.

The true self-sacrifice is that which refuses to permit
personal imperfections to rule in the personal life,
and gives up to the light, the power and the life of spirit.
