What is your greatest sin?
If this can be a sin, I am like a volcano; sometimes very calm, sometimes with an explosion that can be heard very far away.

I try not to believe in sins, regrets…life is for living and is a learning experience.
Love to all x
I don’t really know what my greatest sin is. If I’d do, I’d avoid this sin. But I think I’m sometimes very impatient. This annoys the people around me. If I could change this would be a great step in the right direction.
My greatest sin/crime so far, I have only committed against myself, not allowing myself to love, because all I have known is pain, born a warrior, life been/is an borderless battlefield…. not giving myself the chance to seek peace because all I have known is fighting, giving unconditionally to those around me, as I have lived the life of the understanding mother, but not allowing myself to receive. How do I learn to love without fear…. without anxiety? That is my challenge….Will I ever let my soul feel, breath, love, fly with its golden wings. I preach the divine knowledge of love to all around me, but I am merely an imposter…Lord, Mother……Give me the strength to allow myself to love and be loved. Embrace me…I am the lost child crying for the womb of my mother…. the refugee searching for a sense of belonging….seeking a soil to flourish on. A woman wanting to know what it feels to completely give her heart and being to the hand of a man…. I thank all of you who write your thoughts and stories in this blog, I can relate to all of you in so many ways….. I have visited this site so many times gone through the words…. felt each of them, but only know allowed myself to share….this is a time of cleansing for me….time of rejuvenation…letting go of the past…no longer a victim of my personal history…however I carry my scars of the past proudly, because good or bad it is my pain and it is a part of me!… Thank you Paulo for being my unaware teacher. as I seek for a sense of belonging, I feel a touch of peace as I find a part of myself in all of your books….
Love to you all, and may you always be in the light….
Hope, Awat

I know I heard you over here in Australia ,very loud eruption …lol…oh you are only human and it is not a sin to explode /go off your head every now and then ….I bet you heated up a cup of coffee with the sound energy …its un natural not to express yourself ..releasing anger or frustration is fine ,our emotions are to be dealt with not denied ..but Balance is the answer and also duck from the firing line .:-)

Allowing the past and the future influence my life more than the present does.
If it is believed that all of mankind is born in sin as a consequence to choices made by the originating human pair, then it should be surmised that sin is a condition, not an action; (remedied by a condition of reconciliation).
Thus, the question would be understood as:
What is your greatest crime?
How about allowing doubt to prematurely alter ones course of act? Therein lies prejudice, hesitation, and inhibition which are the underpinnings to crimes against all humanity.

To be like a vulcano can be a sin if its explosion destroyes people living near to it. On the other hand vulcanos are fascinating, their eruptions form fertile landscapes and they attract people just because of their incalculability. As a geographer I meet vulcanos as well with interest as with respect and caution.
I look back and forth trying to answer the question:
“What is my sin?”
I do not know!
I do not feel like I have any sin…
Oh, God,just like me .I hope you dont feel offended.When I was at University I made also a test of personality.The result was unique in my group,and strange.I was both passionall and temperate,and this is true in real life.I feel good the way I am.Because I am anything but a boring person. Bye
I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN….
My greatest sin I commited to myself. Deep inside I knew what my “legend” is, I never followed it’s path but did everything and all to satisfy others ignoring myself. That way burning like candle burning from both sides.
My equaly greatest sin is when I let go my Soulmate. Only when I read “..River Piedra…” and “Brida” I realised how big loss it is.
“Brida” was like cure for me, and it is true that even once in a life time Soulmates touched
whole universe stays within you for the rest of your life.
When came day I had nothing more to give and realized that I wasted the most precious in my life: love and time, I understood what my Soulmate was telling me (for 37 years we keep in touch), helping me.
Now, I guess that there are more than one Soulmate, and the Time did not work in my favor. I am nt Brida I am Magus.
So do not waste neither love nor time, that is
The Sin!
Love with all your heart and live your time with all your being !

Not being true to myself at times. Not listening to the voices in my head, telling me to follow my dreams.
