I remember staying away from home for some long time.. I used to stay at my relatives place as my work place was away from my house... So I had to sacrifice my home and family for a while to earn extra..

I am a mom and having to go to work each day instead of being home with my kids is already a sacrifice for me. But still my income from work is not enough to pay for our needs and obligations, so I still have to spend time after work doing extra freelance work and selling stuffs. I get to see my little boys around 2-3 nights in a week. Whenever I get home, they are already asleep and when I wake up in the morning, my eldest is already in school and I am already in the hurry to go to work.

time is mostly what i sacrifice here online. i also have a regular job and then spend some time here online too to earn extra. my income here online is not so much yet compared to my real job but im hoping that it will be bigger by next year and when it does ill resign in my job and focus on work at home jobs which is better so i can be close to my family.

usually, i have to move away from my family. just like you, being away from family is a sacrifice to be done to be able to earn a living. it is a worthy sacrifice for a responsible family member. there are times that would be difficult such as loneliness, but it is no match to the satisfaction of supporting a family.

i moved out of the country to get a job with higher pay. unfortunately, things have not been so good here and I am unemployed because of the recession :( will be giving my self another month or two to see if i should just head back home.
