I discussed a few times with my husband if I should include envy and the seven deadly sins in the article... I felt that topic warrants a whole column to itself... along with the others... as so many seem to be very prevalent and normalized now, it's worth contemplating.
Why just leave them alone? Study what it is, they have, that has made them successful and emulate if you are able. Bringing them down a peg or two is a waste of time and energy deadly sin or not.
Thanks very much for your interesting and insightful writing. (I also live Down Under - weather’s a bit grim atm - we don’t expect this sort of thing in Sunny Sydney.)
I have to borrow from a post by Joel Bowman when he left a quote from Leo Tolstoy "There can be only one resolution-a moral one; the regeneration of the inner man." By this saying, I would imply cutting down our own vices, instead of cutting down a person for what we we perceive to be their intentions.
If envy is one of the seven deadly sins, it may be best to leave the successful alone. This assumes that those sins are personally destructive.
