How do I know if I'm sacrificing too much for someone I love?
Mirabai gave everything to her devotion—but she chose it. That's the difference. When you're giving from a full cup, even radical generosity feels alive. When you're pouring from an empty one, resentment creeps in like fog. Ask yourself: Am I doing this because I want to, or because I'm afraid of what happens if I don't? Are they asking for this, or am I offering it as proof of my love? The examined heart—that's Mirabai's real teaching. Sit with the discomfort long enough to hear your own voice underneath the noise. Sometimes love means showing up fully. Sometimes it means saying no. Both are acts of devotion when they come from honesty. If you're keeping score, or hiding how tired you are, that's your signal to pause. Real love doesn't require you to disappear. It asks you to stay present—to yourself first.
