Sacrifices

To all of our drivers away from home on the holidays thank you, thank you from all of us at Arpin and from your families.

We all make sacrifices every day.

  Even for those of us that are not away from home for days or weeks on end may have children that you need to drop off at day care, you sacrifice daily knowing that you would prefer to stay home with your children but you know that you need to do it for the good of the family and for your child.

You need to provide and to try to set the table for your children to succeed.

It is not easy.

It is not easy for those that choose to drive across country and to be away from home and your loved ones but you know that you do it for the family.

This is your profession.

This is what you do best and because of that it is the best way that you can provide for your family.
It is a huge sacrifice and one that takes adjustments by everybody in the family.

As I have said in a past blog it is the quality of time that you spend with your loved ones not necessarily the quantity.

I know people that have the good fortune to be home every day and have a family but choose to send their children away or do not understand the blessing that they have and the opportunity that they have so they ignore their children or worse they argue with them and wish they did not have so much time with them.

The tough thing about those that sacrifice is you do not always get to see immediate rewards, quite the opposite you may either give yourself so much guilt or perhaps your family does not immediately understand how hard it is for you and they may lay the guilt on you and you start to question if it is worth it and then begins a domino of negativity.

Believe in what you are doing and do the best you can.
We all need to sacrifice and we can be better off for it.
No family situation is perfect, we all may wish for different circumstances at times but we need to work within our means.

Being away from your loves ones is difficult but if you use the time that you have with them positively and know why you do what you do then it will all work out.

Like I said it ain't easy but most things worth having and keeping are worth the sacrifice.

Stay on coarse.....
