    b. Sacrifice for a loved one is not always easy.

    Explanation:

    Della's pain is because she had to sacrifice her beloved hair to buy a gift to her beloved husband. This means that when we love someone, circumstances will not always be easy, quite the opposite. And that sacrifices for love usually mean giving up something else we adore, in the case of the female character it was her hair.
