Blog Post 3: Myths and Fables

If I were ever to write myself into a myth or fable, my character would resemble the likes of Athena and Sivitri. Sivitri, a woman forced to use her wit and willpower to save her husband in an arduous situation. When presented with a challenge, I can almost always be considered the tension-reliever. I love to have meaningful, thought provoking conversation, however, when these conversations happen, they usually coincide with a heavier atmosphere. I prefer the atmosphere stay light, and sarcasm is my self-defense. However, I do find myself pursuing every challenge I face until the end. Athena, the goddess of intelligence, handicraft and wisdom exemplifies my quieter, more reserved side. I often am quiet because I do not believe that something needs to always be said. There is time for thought and time for speech, and discerning this is part of being wise. Well thought out statements are formed in the quiet, which shows intelligence. Finally, I am creative; I have a vision for nearly everything, I know what the end product should look like. My role then would fall between elaborator and coordinator. I make sure everyone is on board and knows their tasks, while also elaborating on ideas and thoughts to form a vision that the whole group can comply with.
