Love this myth.

[@dhdhebeb1780]

For Love is supposed to be with that which is Creation, Crafting, for Desire yearns towards Wholeness. It is this constant yearning that implies secretly implies a cut off of Wholeness and Fulfilment so as to keep on yearning, Love made of herself to be with War- that devastating destruction and horror no matter how forbidden it is meant to be

It is ridiculous trying to judge the deep female sexual desire, and it is stupid trying to vindicate a sexual betrayal: this is in my opinion the lesson we could infer from this myth. It is the lesson Herodotus gives us in the first book of his opera. Judgement and vindication drive to war: it is much better laughing, as Gods do. Odysseus, though he is innocent, learns it on his skin. E questo vale anche per le donne.
In the video, it is omitted the role played by God Helios, the one who lights the fire of Hefaistos'rage. Why?
