A Great Lie - Human

Intro

I always wondered why the seven deadly sins were considered so bad. According to the internet they were meant to be the root of all emotions believed to be immoral. I think that everybody falls into one of the sins.

The sins themselves are; Wrath, Lust, Greed, Gluttony, Pride, Envy & Sloth.

Personally I feel that I fall into the sin of wrath. No matter what happens I always end up going back to anger. And honestly, it pisses me off (annoying isn't it, hating anger leads me right back to it). But recently that changed. Because I've been falling between two different sins instead. Even though they lead me back to wrath.

The two that I find myself between are Envy and Lust, in other words jealousy of someone because I want what they have. The reason lust falls into it is because it's a person. Tragic huh.

However it did get me thinking more about my emotions and how I would categorise myself. Which some would say is stupid. For centuries people have fought to stay out of being stereotyped and judged because of how they were grouped. But here I am inflicting this upon myself. What a dumbass.

Anyway I want to do this mini series to elaborate on all the seven sins which would lead us to the title. The Great Lie - Human. I'm hoping to explain at the end why I've called it this but for now it's to discover why I hate this part of myself so much, the part others would call "Being human".

We all have our demons. Big, small it doesn't matter. Anything can make a difference, especially for the worst. We all have our sins.
