I've thought a lot about sacrifice in the last few weeks. The Morrigan has become fond of asking me if I am ready to die for the things I want to change. It scared me in the beginning, but I have come to understand that some changes we call into our lives will so transform us that we will become unrecognizable to ourselves and others afterward. It's like we walk into the Fire, all that is familiar is burned away, and we are reborn from the flames like a phoenix. Every path we choose leaves another unexplored.
Every choice is also a sacrifice.
