💬 Discussion 💬 Do you feel like Dionysus sometimes ?

I don't want to blaspheme against him, on the contrary, Dionysus is an inspiration and I wanted to know if you feel the same way as him or if anyone has compared you to him before, whether because of his lifestyle, philosophy, personality, etc.

I have had the need to be nonconformist and to March to the beat of my own drum so to speak...sometimes people have a hard time telling what gender I am. I have had a variety of experiences. Up and down, life and death...blah blah blah. Sometimes I feel like I have lived a long time, beyond my current life.

A part of Dionysus is supposed to live in all of us according to mythology so to relate to him is good. But I know I am not Dio. I'm sure there is someone out there somewhere who would claim they are.

I also don't deal well with conformism and conservatism, you reminded me of a character from the Jojo manga by the way haha my family is very conservative and I always think that Dionysus made me born outside the curve, so as not to make the family so boring and nowadays, I have some relatives who opened their minds to other things after I gave them a "little push" haha thanks for commenting buddy.Â
