obligation vs sacrifice

What will you do if you're obligated to do something & you don't want to do it anymore but by not doing it may sacrifice everything your living for?

Your question is either very bad english or extremely obvious.

Obligation = being morally or legally bound

Sacrifice = an act of giving up something one values for the sake of something that is of greater importance

So re-read your question. Sacrificing everything you are living for would be the ultimate sacrifice and hence is a very strong comment. Not being happy with an obligation is pretty weak and is the option you must take.

Nobody can give you what you should do . You are the one who knows the situation just you have to do a analysis that in both the situations ,where are you going to loose and what are you going to achieve. And after making decision if you are happy it means you are right if not then please do not do it. Try it.

Life is a matter of choice.. whatever makes you happy, then follow it and faced the consequence..and if you are strong enough to sacrifice then you are obliged to do it even sacrificing something will lead to something which you think had effect in your Life.

tHink carefully my friend...the more critical you are , the best result you can have...though , as what they've said, " THERE'S NO HARM IN TRYING".. why not try, right!!!!!

and lastly, you are the only ONE who can decide which way to choose.... Goodluck,,,, PRAY ALOT ALSO, this may help u for a clear understanding spiritually and emotionally...

I got confused on what was that obligation and what was for sacrificing what you're living for... :)(is that for your own or for your love one or family?)

do what makes you happy, it will not make you fruitfull enough if you are not enjoying where you into now. :)

There are always solutions to all the problems.....

Priorities your obligations and attend which is more important, which makes you feel more happy; be responsible, Remember you cannot make everybody happy but don't become SELFISH....

FINALLY It is your call....

You're the one that has to live with yourself and be happy.... you're the only one that can figure that out.

first of all obligtion means you're obliged/paid to do while sacrifice means you do against your will or hurts you.as devon lloyd said depends on the situation your facing.some times we really need to sacrifice for the sake of others good.

Sounds like the lesser of the 2 evils is to carry on your obligation. What would be the point of sacrificing everything you're living for?

Well, it's too deep. Hard to answer the question...probably I dont know the exact scenario. Could you be more specific...(PM will do)....coz it depends on what the situation is. But there will always be a solution for each problem.

Generally, I can say that if I don't like it....I wont do it. It's hard to do things if you dont really mean doin' it. Are you in some kind of a threat?
