Examples of forsaking in a Sentence
Shining doesn't always signify gold; sometimes, real gold shines less, while fake gold dazzles with false allure. A common man may blindly choose the fake because of its surface brilliance, forsaking the authentic. However, a discerning man, knowing what he truly seeks, prioritizes quality over mere appeal, recognizing that substance holds greater value than superficial glamour.
