All Doomed to Hell...

Don Juan is a story about a Casanova who tricks women into marrying him just so that he can sleep with them. He plays multiple women, and gets whatever he wants, whenever he wants. However, in the end, it seems as though Don Juan gets what many people would say he deserved. Don Juan gets taken into hell, and pays a price for his actions which have hurt so many of the people that have fallen folly to his act.
Don Juans imprisonment in hell brings up a good question that affects each of us: Do each of us have a hell to pay for our actions? All individuals commit some sort of sin, its part of our human nature, there's no escaping it. However, are we constantly being punished for these sins, paying a tough price for doing only what comes naturally to us? Each of us is constantly complaining about something that bothers us, something that we wish would just go away. Could it be that these nuisances are the price we pay for committing a wrongful act? And can we escape this sort of doom, or is it an endless cycle that will keep repeating itself, due to the fact that human nature causes us to behave in ways that don't always produce the kindest result.
