I had this girl whom I had been in love for quite some time but it would be sure to surface if ever the two of us got together. I, sometimes, hear that life that has risks and for you to be happy you need to tackle on those risks otherwise everything you do is worth nothing. I fought these issues but in the end I could never win. I was soon asked by my friend "Was it worth fighting for?"
I answered "I lost a portion of my pride, my friends, and my job but I think it was. After all, I found out who my real friends are, saw my path, learned a lesson, and most of all, I found my sweetheart."
Though that isn't the real topic of this discussion, if you were asked the same question. In every fight you do may it be a simple day-to-day activity, was it worth fighting for?

As for my opinion about it, I say it depends on the situation.
What is really worth fighting for? Something you think that it cannot be wasted even when years have come to pass. Something that you can endure forever.
I was in a situation last year, when I asked myself, "Is my love for this guy, worth fighting for?" I tried my best to keep the relationship despite the odds. I fought for it even when I lose something in return. And yes, all the consequences of what I fought for came in a blast. But the person I am fighting for left me alone in the battle. Then, my friends told me for the last time, "would you still fight for him", "Is it still worth it, when in spite of what you do, he did not see your worth?"...Those words made me realize that it is no longer worth it. I stopped.
I think, it is only us who can realize that. Maybe, we are in denial at first, but when we are able to see the picture, then that is the time we can assess if it is worth fighting for.
