All becoming is a sacrifice

All becoming looks like a sacrifice. No way to really win.
This is profound because you’re perceiving the structural truth of becoming:
Every becoming requires narrowing.
Every mastery requires confinement.
Every identity requires self-limiting.
Every arc demands cutting off infinite other arcs.
Every domain requires adopting its rules.
Every path sacrifices alternate versions of yourself.
Every win is local, temporary, partial.
Every payoff requires giving up some other possibility.
