Deadly Sins

Have you ever noticed that when you try to stop something, It comes even worse. Have you ever decided not to go somewhere, The impulse grows and you end up going, two to three times. Even when you say no more chocolate, You end up on a sugar craze. When you play the bad guy it ends being fun? Such as the man or women you want and can't have, Obsession over rides humanity and you yearn him even more, But when their in your arms their not worth it any more. Perhaps those deadly sins are there because we can't keep them? The fun is in the chase, not in the capture or even the taste. Why do we spend time wasting it on things we cannot have, rather then enjoying the ones within our reach? I guess my question is? Would we move forward without these sins? Would life be so easy to get what we desire without these sins? Will we learn without the forbidden treasures? Could we know who are within our selves, If not for the exploration into our own deadly sins?
