Hello Guys!!!

I am a person who loves Greek Mythology. It's probably my favorite thing about history! There's only a small list of things I love more than yapping about things I like and know!!! Also tell me if I'm wrong in the comments or anything more you know. I would love to expand my knowledge.

Greek Gods-
  -Zeus(Leader of the Greek Gods and the God of Lightning).
  -Poseidon (God of the Sea).
  -Hades (God of the Underworld).
  -Ares (God of War and Battle).
  -Thanatos (God of Death).
  -Kratos (God of Strength).
  -Erebus (God of Darkness and Shadows).

Greek Goddesses-
   -Hera(The Queen of Gods and Goddesses, Zeus's wife and The god of childbirth, marriage and women.)
   -Athena(The God of War and Wisdom, Daughter of Zeus.)
   -Aphrodite(The Goddess of Beauty and Love.) 
   -Nyx(Goddess of Darkness.)
   -Artemis(Goddess of Hunting and The Moon.)
   -Persephone(The Goddess of the Underworld and Demeter's Daughter.)
   -Demeter(The Goddess of Agriculture and Harvest.)

A Story
This story is set in the olden Greek times.

Once in the old days there was a young woman called Arachne and she was an excellent weaver. She often boasted about her skills and even the gods were impressed with her weaving. So people started to say that she might even be much better than Athena The goddess herself.
Athena, the goddess of war and wisdom had a special and well known talent for art especially weaving. She couldn't bear to be beaten by a mortal so went in for a challenge. She dressed as a an old woman and went to the weaver's house and challenged her to a weaving competition.
Athena's quilt was beautifully done displaying the beauty of Greek gods and goddesses.  
But Arachne's quilt was done showing the Greek Gods and Goddess's flaws but better woven and more interesting than Athena's.
Athena was furious and destroyed the tapestry. Then she turned Arachne into a spider cursed to weave for eternity and that is the Greek tale for how spiders were created. 


This post was pretty long and if you made it to the end that's pretty cool. I hope you enjoyed this post and follow for more stories, poems and cool stuff. Comment on what you know about Greek mythology too. 
Have a Nice Life!!!

A Deep Story about the Human Mind ...💥📝❄️🌹 #coolstuffblog #story

As a character in her head Lux is responsible to find the shattered bits of her soul and put them back where they belong. Home." I found a really cool  writing prompt  in  Pinterest  and I really wanted to try it. So here it goes! The prompt is, 'The Writer has fallen into a coma. All the characters in their head is trying to keep them alive.' It won't be exactly the same as the prompt. Hope you enjoy it.               POV: Lux. Something feels off. Something is off. Two minutes ago the lights flickered for about twenty seconds and all the lights exploded at once. Now her mind is dark. I can see the silhouettes of things around me but the dark isn’t comforting.  Elle’s mind was always messy, objects strewn across the place. Purple vines grow in the roof and open books, papers and soft toys ev...
