    So during my process of digging 7 deadly sins, i came across their counter parts. 7 contrary virtues.

    So i will ask you which ones you lean towards!

    The virtues are (and their counter parts)

    Humility- Pride
    Kindness- Envy
    Abstinence- Gluttony
    Chasity- Lust
    Patience- Wrath
    Liberality- Greed
    Diligence- Sloth

    Note: 7 sins are personality traits and 7 virtues are acts of humbleness. They dont cancel each other. You can be Angry by narure, but be paticent.

    I'll say i lean towards Patience, Kindness and Diligence.


    Also another thing. I think it would have been awesome if Full metal alchemist would have had 7 anti- homuculi based around 7 contrary virtues xD

    Ah I love this >w> and I agree with your FMA point, that'd be sweet.

    Patience is right away a huge one for me, I've always been a pretty patient person and I've always worked on improving my patience, too. I have also always appreciated peace, have never accepted violence, and work toward balance as much as I can...

    Kindness is another one that jumps out at me; I know I have it in me, but due to my envious nature, I can't say I fully have it down. I can be incredibly kind, but not as often as I'd like. I've been working at improving this over the years but I still have a ways to go. ♥

    Hmm... it's tricky, but I'd definitely say I'm patient and chaste. I'm also kind, but I do get envious a fair bit.

    Oooh... I'd probably go for kindness and Liberality.
    I like to always remain kind to everybody, even my enemies. It helps control some anger issues I used to have in the past, because forgiving my enemies makes me lose all anger towards them.

    As for Liberality, I like any other person do like to own things and such, but I've never really made owning stuff my goal... I like leading a somewhat simple life. I can get greedy sometimes, such as with Nintendo stuff, but I feel I lean to the other end of it.

    i have Abstinence,Chasity,and some Kindness,also a tiny bit of patience.

    I don't eat a lot but i don't starve myself,and i can be nice when i'm in a good mood, i have no patience when it comes to new games, but for some other things...i can wait for. I'm normal in love relationships and i don't get jealous when i see couples together.

    Probably Liberality and Humility.
    I love looking at things at a different perspective, and it really bothers me when someone can't. Times are changing, so being stuck to just an old idea, shouldn't be real. I think people need to learn that it's good to be open-minded and try new things, since it can bring happiness.

    Humility is definitely me. I cannot take a compliment at all, and I definitely really don't think I deserve much. I consider myself as a person who's just there to help other people. I've tried to take a little more pride in my work, but I always end up thinking that it could have better, it could have been something that would live up to other people's expectations. I really just can't take that much pride in almost anything about myself.

    What I lack in humility is made up for in kindness. I treat everybody with respect just like how my spirit Pokémon does: Togetic. I believe that you need to be kind to everybody in order to become a perfect person. If you lack kindness, then what kind of person are you? When I see people that are just plain rude about things, it kind of gets my back up because it really isn't that hard to be kind to people.

    Kindness, Humility, and Liberality to some extend.

    I personally always place other people before me. It's actually something that has been considered a serious problem by some people, though I never thought of it that way. I consider other people to be, let's say more worth as I am. I will always, no matter in what circumstances, give the priority to other people above myself, even if that means something negative for me. If other people are happy at my cost, then that's all right with me. I guess that kind of summarized the virtues I listed xD
