Mythology is poetry, it is metaphorical. It has been well said that mythology is the penultimate truth penultimate because the ultimate cannot be put into words. It is beyond words. Mythology pitches the mind beyond that rim, to what can be known but not told.There’s a Greek legend no, it’s in something Plato wrote,about how true lovers are really two halves of the same person. It says that people wander around searching for their other half, and when they find him or her, they are finally whole and perfect.
