The Power of Women

Ohh!!!  Women

The ancient gods dwelling on Mt. Olympus heights

Being gods were subjected to wrongs and rights

Tempted by the rather tantalizing sights

They disguised themselves as men in their plight

Then came and enjoyed the women’s delight

Angels too leaving their own estate

Succumbed to temptations that was great

Came they and sampled what was forbidden their taste

For how the women came equipped they too could appreciate

And the angels indulged and with women did procreate

Throughout history many a man that stood so tall

Women has been their down fall

And now the women complain, lament and insist

That us mere mortal men should desist

Wanting what the gods and angels could not resist

Women have been objects of fascination ever since men have existed. The ancient Greeks while not specifying who was the first man but assigned Pandora as the first woman. These ancient Greeks clearly could not fathom woman because the felt that a greater calamity could not have befallen man that the bringing into existence of Pandora the first woman.  

For some women being called a goddess by a man is regard as being held in high regard and also as a compliment. However, the ancient Greek goddesses often saw women as being in competition for the attention of the gods and the women were often subjected to the anger, wrath, hatred, envy and jealousy of the goddesses. The ancient Greek goddesses somehow were never able to retain the attention of the gods or satisfy their desires because the gods found women to be irresistible. It remain to be seen how attractive the goddesses found men but there arose many demigods and many women suffered at the hands of the goddesses through no fault of their own. These goddesses simply did not like the fact of their husbands leaving the heights of Mt. Olympus to visit the mortal women.

It is possible that the ancients Greeks with all their wisdom and military superiority could not understand how women were able to exercise control over the men. It was baffling how a large brutal and callous a man can be controlled by so small a creature as a woman.

Judeo/Christian beliefs extends to the very beginning of the existence of man and Judeo/Christian beliefs presents man as being more inclined to be more obedient to the woman than to his God. Maybe this was indicative of man being created with a flaw and the woman being his weak point.

A total description of Angels is not given but angels to seem to have fallen under the spell of women. Procreating was never intended for the angels but they too fell under the spell of the women.

It is a good thing that in our present day the gods no longer live on Mt. Olympus and the angels have been brought under control so men now do not have competition from the gods and the angels.

In our present day the mixing of the genes and different nationalities only serve to make our women more beautiful. In addition to this it is now possible to go into beauty shops and make more attractive, desirable and beautiful what is already perfect. Maybe if the gods and angels were still around then men would be in more trouble or made extinct because the gods and angels would not want to share the women.

At present a strange phenomenon is happening in our world because there are a number of countries that are reporting declining birth rates but the general population of the earth continue to grow.  The ancient Greek had to contend with demigods and the Judeo/Christians tell of a time when giants existed on the earth. Maybe we should be thankful that what we have to deal with is simply multiracial persons.

  

    A Tribute to Women

Endowed with beauty both in body and disposition
She is the masterpiece of God's creation
And who can add anything to perfection
Designed and equipped so well to care and nurture
Depository of wisdom that will influence the future
Entrusted with bearing earth's great ones
Nourishing body, mind, spirit and soul
Ensuring the whole being is healthy and whole
Ignoring one's place in the social order
Pope, king, president, or pauper
This is the way and no other
Born cherished and cared
By a woman and mother
