Cupid’s Krispies
Cupid's Krispies
Cupid (known to the Greeks as Eros) was the Roman god of love. He was the son of Venus (Aphrodite to the Greeks), the Roman Goddess of Love.
Cupid appears in one myth where he falls in love with Psyche. (Psyche is her Greek name and while the Romans also called her Anima, they mainly used her Greek name to retell the myth). Psyche begins life as mortal woman and is later changed into a goddess.
Cupid is going to strike her with his arrow to make her fall in love with a nasty creature. But, he ends up scratching himself with his own arrow by mistake. The next being he sees is Psyche. And, guess what? He falls madly in love with her.
The story shows us, no one is immune to the craziness of love
