7 deadly sins

Warning: This is completely random but I am attempting to make some ties.

I had another enlightening discussion about the 7 deadly sins which, honestly I rarely think of.

LUST
ENVY
GREED
ANGER
SLOTH
GLUTTONY
PRIDE

What does this have to do with Capstone? Well...I can't give you an extremely magnificent answer quite yet because I have not had time to really think about this. But in Eliot, many of these are present. Or at least we could say they are to some extent. The love, unification of lovers- while that may not be erotic, lovers must feel lust do they not? Do we not all envy Eliot for his use of language and the realizations he brings us to in regards of time? Greed is clearly depicted in the way that we have overcome the river, but it gets the better of us because the sea and ocean defeat us! With death comes anger...need I say more? Also this ties in with the whole idea of death and isolation. The sin of sloth is the same idea- we do or do not do things sometimes because of this. I could not find an eliot connection to Gluttony but immediately the picnic scene from the wind in the willows came to mind. And Lastly pride. Again, I think of Eliot because I feel that he reminds us without saying it straightforwardly that Pride takes over us in a way that is harmful and eventually we are defeated but I also think, what would one be without some pride? Isn't pride a good thing to have a portion of?

Perhaps I will find something amazingly interesting as I ponder all these thoughts
