Every civilization rises to great heights and falls into oblivion. Within each kingdom resides descriptions of the best and worst ideals for behavior. The seven deadly sins, for example, gives tales about the destruction that can occur should people embrace them. Likewise, the seven heavenly virtues describe concepts people should follow to uplift them both physically and spiritually.
Season 4 - Review
Season 4 has almost 100 entries on the Seven Deadly Sins. Each author picked a sin of their choice and discussed its impact on society. It also had a twist where the authors debated how these sins could benefit their society.
The Most Popular Sin of 2021
Greed was the most prevalent sin of 2021. It made sense. We naturally want to make money or acquire some other form of wealth. It's a human trait we're all subject to handling. I wonder how people would use liberality to temper greed. Follow along with this article to learn of this week's challenge!

I'm glad we have the opportunity to continue the contest. Thanks to the community for supporting our fellow authors. I look forward to providing more in the future. Thank you for reading and following on throughout my Hive journey.
This will be my first time posting for WOTW, and am excited to do so. I think I have everything down. One of my tags should be POB-WOTW, but does it matter to what community it gets posted? Should we post in proof of brain? Is there a length you prefer?
The length doesn't matter. It's the author's choice. The community doesn't matter either so long as you use the tag. You'll probably be rewarded more POB/VYB if you use that respective front-end though. I look forward to reading your entry.
Thank you! I went ahead and posted it. Tha is for the clarification.
Great topics to meditate on. Just that I am confused about the one to settle for. @scholaris, in the past, we have the privilege to write on more than one topic. Can we still do so even if it is not for contest sake?
Go ahead. Your imagination is the limit.
I couldn't participate in season 4, but I did have some thoughts about seven deadly sins that I couldn't write.
Well, while reading about season's 5 7 heavenly virtues something came to my mind. As for seven deadly sins there was guide to write about some points how they may be beneficial, for heavenly virtues there can be something like write some points how the men can be manipulative about them. It was just a wild thought 😊
Go for it! We look forward to reading your entry.
Lol. Have I dared to take a responsibility on me 🤔🤔. I will try my level best
Very excited that WOTW is back. I am down with covid at the mo so not going to be online much this week. I'm quite exhausted. Is that a UTC deadline again?
I hope you get better real soon Sam. Just get to feeling better real soon. The contest isn't going anywhere. And yes, it's UTC hours.
❣️
thank you :-) I am feeling much better❣️Each day improving.
Kind of a yin and yang thang goin' here.
Is it crazy how saying backwards sentences creates sentences backwards saying how crazy it is?
Also "how to get shit done" may be a useful article for all of us.
My final question...
When is the deadline for this week's challenge?
Hello. Contest info is as follows:
Contest Period:
Thanks for pointing this out. I have also edited the article.
Hey @scholaris, should we increase the deadline until the 21st so we have two weeks for the initial challenge round? That would give a bit more time for people to get their heads around these topics.
Sorry about that. I forgot. I've been sick the last couple of days.
No need to apologise mate. It's all good. I appreciate the fact that you got this out even when under the weather. Hope you're feeling better!
Sending much love @scholaris.vyb I hope you are starting to feel better too. I wasn't aware that you were also unwell. Thank you both for extending the contest deadline - gives us all an opportunity to ease back into it and get the intellect ticking over again ❣️ !LUV
Sure. It will be done. I’ll edit the article today to reflect the new date.
Got it. And we can have only one entry?
Correct
I don't get this point, maybe I'm reading it wrongly but could you mind explaining???..
Well, well what an heavenly way to start the contest for this year. . Looking forward to reading amazing posts like I always do and also looking forward to how creative my mind can be ...
Let's go!! ❤️✅
Lol. Thanks for pointing that out. It's a holdover from earlier contests. I removed it. We used to post the word for next week's contest. I look forward to reading your entry!
Ohhh, almost got me thinking, haha.
Glad that's cleared. Yeah me too!! ❤️🔥
Cool, WOTW is back again. I hope, I will be kissed by ideas this time, too. Glad, that it's two weeks time.
You and me both❣️
Hello. Thank you for stopping by today. @Calumam recommended the change to two weeks. I think it’s a great idea personally. Everyone has more room to breathe and enjoy the creative process.
!ALIVE !PIZZA
I saw @caluman doing that and sent my thanks through an upvote on his remark :)
Finally, I have it done and give you my entry:

I hope, I will get to read some of the entries within the next days.
Like always, when I take part, I had a blast doing it :)
Bye bye from me to you!
Sorry for being so inconsistent in answering you. I still wanted to get back to you and tell you that I was happy that you read the Diary of Adam and Eve - isn't that a fine book? I laughed really hard while reading it.
Please, read also my entry for WOTW:
