My Understanding Is Limited

There's so much more about life that I learn each and every day. I can't learn everything from my own means - most of what I have learned is through the experiences of my friends. If I knew what I do now, I would totally have changed a lot in my life. I don't think there's anything wrong with regretting the past. That's not to say, I accept what has happened, and I'm definitely not letting it hold me back.

Clarity. Knowledge. Wisdom. Patience. Those are the things I need the most.

Which reminds me of the seven virtues. According to Wikipedia, the Catholic ones are Prudence, Justice, Temperance, Fortitude, Faith, Hope, and Charity. Another list claims them as Chastity, Temperance, Charity, Diligence, Patience, Kindness, and Humility. The Knightly virtues are Courage, Justice, Mercy, Charity, Faith, Valor, Hope, Chastity, Humility, and Resolve.

Seems like the world might be a better place if people had these virtues, huh? I would think so, but the world that has evolved with us couldn't handle that sort of existence. There's too much conflict in this world. In fact, there's just too much "sin" in this world.

But can these so called virtues and sins coexist? Who knows.

It's hard to believe that two opposites can exist together.
