7 sins 7 virtues

Last night I watched the pope do some interviews and discuss issues affecting modern day society. He said he wasn't  one to judge. I thought that was very odd. I too can't decide for others what they should do with their bodies, or who they should love, but in this era it is virtually impossible to achieve 7 virtues or ignore how fast it's changing to accept poor judgement and bad character. Anthony Weiner is a virtual flasher and pervert. Why should anyone accept his leadership when he simply can't keep it in his pants? It think about kindness and charity, temperance etc, and realize many of us are quick to anger and violence than to patience. I struggle with 7 virtues daily. How do I teach my children virtues if I can't model it in the home. I want so desperately for God to love and protect me, but I feel is self pity and that is a sin. I still cry daily because I find myself trapped in a bitter cycle of trying to do the right thing, but being caught up in the challenges of being a good person.
