.7 Deadly Sins. 7 Heavenly Virtues.

Yupps. I'm idling my time away now; taking a little break from this long day.

I began to wonder about the history of 7 deadly sins - Lust, Gluttony, Greed, Sloth, Wrath, Envy, Pride. So I started reading. And I happened to come across the existence of the idea of 7 heavenly virtues which somewhat complements those sins. Via self evaluation and online tests, such double affirmation tells myself that I was right. So right. My greatest deadly sin..it's PRIDE otherwise known as vanity as well. Here of course, I thought bout the extent of each sins in me afterall everyone has a little of everything. Dont tell me you dont.

Much to wonder about the 7 heavenly virtues, some sources provided 8 of them. But basically it's prudence, justice, hope, love, faith, courage, temperance..all rein to the moral wings.

Yet, if you think bout it..too much of the virtues can actually lead to sins as well..dont they? All things come in moderation. All good things turn bad when there's too much..

oh no. i'm so tired and in pain to type a proper entry.. =x stop here first.. :(


i'll seize the day if you take away
