I was very intent on writing something else here; but venus overruled vulcan, and venus victrix decided it best to wait it out a few more hours, hear an explanation, and see where it goes from there. better to be mature than hasty. better to be deliberate than childish. or so one would like to think.side bar: bokeem woodbine is a horrifying actor. no jokes, no witty remarks. just absolutely terrible.
“Venus was the Roman equivalent of Aphrodite, the Greek love goddess. Venus was the daughter of Jupiter and Dione, although sometimes portayed as being created by Uranus from the foam of the sea at the moment of his death. As the goddess of love, she is the “queen of pleasure” and mother of the Roman people. She was married to Vulcan, the lame god of the forge, and mother of Cupid, Hymen, Priapus and Aeneas. It was Venus who recovered her son Aeneas’spear during his fight with the Italian champion Tumus, thus saving his life. Venus is also associated with her lover, Mars the god of war. Considered a nature goddess, associated with the arrival of spring. Venus is the bringer of joy to gods and humans.” [ed. note: quick, what sun signs are ruled by venus? and which by vulcan? muy muy interesante, si?]
“I’m heart-broke but I’m still loc’ed…” – Calvin Broadus
“Love is not all: it is not meat nor drink
Nor slumber nor a roof against the rain;…
Love can not fill the thickened lung with breath,
Nor clean the blood, nor set the fractured bone;
Yet many a man is making friends with death
Even as I speak, for lack of love alone.”
