Which of the Seven Deadly Sins are Deadliest to you?
HASH(0x8bdc1b4)
GREED

Greed is defined as the desire for material wealth
or gain, ignoring the realm of the spiritual.
It's not so surprising in this day and age that
so many of us succumb to the greed of our
capitalist world, but if you wish to free
yourself from the deadly sin that is most
likely to consume you, perhaps you should do
something selfless once in a while. Maybe
volunteer your help in a charity shop, or even
around the house. Just do a little extra that
benefits others instead of yourself.
