WRITING OBSTACLE

If there was an 8th deadly sin, what would it be?

Write a descriptive paragraph about this sin.

Apathy Dressed In Gray

Some say the darkest sin is loud — harmful, uncontrollable.


But apathy is quiet. It has clean hands.


It doesn’t scream; it sighs and turns away.


It doesn’t lash out like wrath or consume like greed — it watches, still and silent, as others suffer. It’s hearing a cruel joke in a meeting and laughing because silence is easier.


Apathy starts as protection — a breath, a boundary — but left unchecked, it devours.


It won’t kill you like the others; it lets you rot quietly from the inside out.


Not always evil, no — but when that boundary becomes a wall, and the wall a fortress, humanity fades.


It isn’t wrathful. It’s worse.


It’s comfortable.
