7 Deadly Sins

All of the 7 sins are inordinate and insatiable. When one partakes in the act of them it can be excessive and obsessive behavior. The yearning of each sin can not be satisfied and one always has to have more and the acts are very selfish.
To overcome these things one must learn to be content, satisfied and be unselfish.
One must be reasonable and know one’s limits. One must strive to be better.
