Anger Controls Human Will

The first four myths that I have read are Juno and her rivals, Io and Callisto, Diana and Actaeon, and Latona and the Rustics. These myths show the different ways anger can be managed. In Juno and her rivals, Juno turns both of the nymphs that his husband admires into ugly creatures that are not longed to love. In both stories, though, Jupiter is able to save his lovers from becoming a complete chaos, even though Juno does complicate their lives. In Diana and Actaeon, Diana is seen naked by Actaeon and turns him into a hairy, horned, creature that is later defeated and eaten by his own dogs under the orders of his own friends. Diana does this because she is a goddess with much pride and is outraged by the fact that she has been seen naked by a man she did not choose. She seeks revenge and finds it when Actaeon is killed by his own troops. And on the story of Latona and the Rustics, anger also changes the way things were currently arranged. Unhappy with the Rustics because they didn’t allow her or her child to drink, Latona wishes for them to never come out of the water again, and this occurred. Then after some time the Rustics become frogs from spending so much time in the water.
These stories remind me of many of the daily occurrences in life. For example the fact that Juno acted against Io and Callisto is because of jealousy. There are currently many couples that distrust one another because betrayal occurs and then the wife or husband that has been cheated to is hurt and longs revenge. Such as Juno made the mistresses suffer the consequences of having gotten involved with her husband, humans also make people suffer and regret their actions. Pride is also a common trait in humans as they work hard on keeping it high and suffer when it is taken to limits. All humans have a certain amount some more than others but I, for example am a very proud person and this is sometimes good and sometimes bad. As in the story of Diana and Actaeon, many people take their pride way too far and make people suffer and suffer themselves when they have been insulted or something has happened to them that they did not like or wanted to accept. Anger is always a strong weapon against the own human mind and it will make humans do things at desperate acts.
