interesting tale
October 4, 2007Eros- god of love, true love, long term, grow-old-bury-us-next-to-each-other thing Himeros- the god of desire, cheap fling
Tale of the Greeks
Eros and Himeros were teenagers looking for trouble, teenagers with wings, armed with bows and arrows (similar to cupid but vaguely different).Eros and Himeros looked EXACTLY alike; no one could tell them apart.
the tale is clear: you might say you're in love, you might even think you're in love, but, in fact, you might just be in lust. You have to love a religion that not only acknowlegdes the difference but deifies it.
eh just found the little story interesting because such an old tale could still represent out generation...funny how love and lust are sooo similar huh?
