Minta

Minta

In Greek mythology, Minta or Menta, was a nymph who lived in the river Cocito, lover of Hades, the king of the world of the dead. It's the "Nymph of the Underworld." Because she was the concubine of the monarch, she boasted of being the most beautiful of the kingdom and claimed that Hades would make her his new sovereign, expelling his hitherto wife Persephone. Their relationship was discovered by the queen, who, in addition to being in the right to demand fidelity from her husband, enraged and jealous made her the mint plant. His myth, in another version, would be connected to the very abduction of Persephone: Minta, a nymph who inhabited the Underworld, kept with Hades a relationship, interrupted by her marriage; the nymph then, trying to recover her lover, came to boast, claiming to be prettier than her rival, arousing fury in Demeter, Core's mother. Demeter then punished the smug girl, making mint appear instead. Na mitologia grega, Minta ou Menta, era uma ninfa que vivia no rio Cocito, amante de Hades, o rei do mundo dos mortos. É a "Ninfa do Submundo". Por ter a condição de concubina do monarca, ela se gabava de ser a mais bela do reino e alegava que Hades iria fazê-la sua nova soberana, expulsando sua até então esposa Perséfone. O relacionamento que os dois mantinham foi descoberto pela rainha, que além de se achar no direito de exigir fidelidade de seu esposo, enraveicida e enciumada transformou-a na planta menta. Seu mito, noutra versão, estaria ligado ao próprio rapto de Perséfone: Minta, ninfa que habitava o Submundo, mantinha com Hades um relacionamento, interrompido por seu casamento; a ninfa então, procurando recuperar o amante, passou a se vangloriar, dizendo ser mais bonita que sua rival, despertando a fúria em Deméter, mãe de Core. Deméter então puniu a moça presunçosa, fazendo em seu lugar surgir a menta.

Miguel Esteves Cardoso
O amor é a nossa alma. É a nossa alma a desatar. A desatar a correr atrás do que não sabe, não apanha, não larga, não compreende. O amor é uma verdade. É por isso que a ilusão é necessária. A ilusão é bonita. Não faz mal. Que se invente e minta e sonhe o que se quiser. O amor é uma coisa, a vida é outra. A realidade pode matar. O amor é mais bonito que a vida. A vida que se lixe.
