| Love and the 7 deadly sins | |

My lazy writers contribution for the july 1st h/w! The style of literally 'a make your own story' was inspired by a short story written by Margaret Atwood called 'happy endings' and published in 'The secret self' ed. by Hermione Lee. A cynical approach to the 7 deadly sins! Hope it makes sense! A typical love story sketch 1) Girl meets boy, boy meets girl. Girl is attracted to boy, or vica versa - but due to a mixture of emotions is too proud to confess. 2a) In some cases the unrequited lover lusts after the beloved and lust eventually turns into wrath when the love struck person realises the feelings are not mutual. the end. 2b)OR The feelings are mutual and acknowledged. In the heat of the moment there is lust - sparks fly, the heavens move ect ect. Both are undulated with happiness, for a time. 3a) Lust cools and subsides and it is apparent that the couple are not meant to be. Then there is wrath at the unfairness of the situation and undoubtedly at each other. the end. 3b) OR Lust deepens and becomes greed. One or the other, or both, wants more and more until a fully fledged relationship is formed. 4a) In some cases one lover will feels the need to dominate the other and jealousy can tear the union asunder. the end. 4b) Or one partner can start to feel undermined or worthless, and in the shadow of their love and therefore becomes envious of their attributes and accomplishments. 4b) Or one partner can start to feel undermined or worthless, and in the shadow of their love and therefore becomes of their attributes and accomplishments. 5) Then sloth sets in. The pair are so comfortable in each other presence that more often than not they become lazy in many ways. They may forsake hobbies, family & friends in order to fulfil their hungry greed for each other. They ‘let themselves go’ in more ways than in their appearance. Sometimes the morphing of personalities can have dreadful consequences, such as the lovers speech and dress becomes imitated and as one. The sloth eventually becomes so great that the emotion of ‘love’ is entirely lost and neither one can appreciate the other. 6) Wrath of the highest order is born as a reaction to the final decay of the relationship. a) the pair stay together in inseparable bitterness. the end. b) The bond is snapped painfully in half and each lover ‘moves on’ to inflict the 7 deadly sins of love onto another uninformed, unsuspecting victim of humanities errors. the end.
