Greed is the only sin where you feed but do not get fed.

We all desire something … what is it that you desire?

Money

Respect

Power

Sex

With Greed, you will almost do anything to get what you desire

Maybe even all 7 sins …

Greed is an endless need for everything in the world which you can have, but are you ok with n o t h i n g ?

Think you might be GREEDY, here are a few signs:

  • What you have is not enough

Well, yup.

That is pretty much it, I imagined a panting hungry dog. (Maybe I should have used the dog emoji) Overly eager and ready to attack. That's what greed does to your mind. Gimme Gimme Gimme ! Take Take Take ! That is all that deadly sin screams.

So whats the solution

  • DONATION$$$ , Charity will certainly cure greediness because it is forcing you to be giving instead of stingy.
  • $$$AVE / SAVOR, Why are you looking for more before appreciating what you already have? Make what you have more valuable than what you want. Also, savoring what you have will duplicate its value. This will allow you to give to yourself.

I provided opposite solutions to greed but they both require giving. And that is the main theme when it comes to someone who is struggling with greed.

Thank you all for reading! I want to hear about your experiences so please leave comments below.
