/YOURSELF COLLECTION/

Pride, Greed, Lust, Wrath, Gluttony, Sloth, Envy. Humans seven deadly sins, have you ever heard of them before?


If you've watched the movie "SHAZAM" yet, don't you remember the monster showed

his true face at the last moment? Hmm, are you sure? Yes!!


"The big angry guy is that Wrath, right?
And then Gluttony, Pride, Greed, Sloth, Lust?
...
Where's the lucky number 7? Where's little man? Where's Envy? But the other sins they get to come out and fight because they are big, strong and scary. But Envy, he is just the runt.
That's why all the other Sins never invite him out to play, man.
Because they all know who'd win.
And it's not weak, worthless, ugly Envy."

When inside SIVANNA there's only one sin, that was how SHAZAM dragged the Envy out.

And it couldn't stand criticism, indignation then it ran out the body of that guy SIVANNA, didn't give a care about his body was falling from the top floor of the building.

ENVY is a phantom, it hides deeply inside us.

"Envy is not as truculent as a lion, it is as moderate as a wolf. And the same to wolf, envy doesn't stand alone but in a flock."

Envy sneaks into ourselves, gently and slowly. Like the way a wolf observes the prey.

In a meeting with your old friend, when she coming, your mind immediately comes up with tons of thoughts within couple of first seconds:


"Oh did she just change her hairstyle? Where's the salon she did? Hmm... the hairstyle is great, but it's kinda not looking good with her face because her face is too round!"
"Wow she looks so slim! I'm pretty sure that she worked out very hard? But why she didn't work out her face too?"
"Hmmm which brand of foundation she applied on her face? Her skin is so smooth? The lipstick color is so cool, too. I guess I'm gonna rush to buy it now."

"New handbag, looks so sophisticated, but it seems like it's a fake one, or if it's the exclusive one - I'm sure that she claimed her boyfriend to buy it. How lucky she is! I wish I had a boyfriend like hers."

But you still smiled with her and talked to her a "nice" greeting:

"You look so great todayyy!"

Simultaneously, while savoring a cup of latte, your old friend casts a furtive glance with a line of thoughts through her mind:

"Why she looks so pretty? I remember the last time we met she was like a mess."

"She is pursuing tomboy style which is a trend now, well she just wants to become a part of the fad."

Then she stroked her hair gently,

tapped her hand,

smiled nicely, and asked:

"How's everything? It's all gooddd? Tell me moreee!"
Well, have you ever met "the prince" Envy?

Simply, we are all greedy, we never feel there's enough for ourselves.

The battlefield is not out there, it's inside each person of us.

Standing to fight, removing the cover of Envy or letting him invade and kill you every single day?

Let's make a JUDICIOUS decision!

But first, learn to understand yourself deeply and...

LOVE YOURSELF.
