Might as well add that today my parents ruined my whole mood yet again in public and made me CRY IN PUBLIC (again. Again.) and we walked to like this میدان where Hermes’ statue was and I. Felt so much relief wash over me when I stepped there. I don’t know call me crazy all you want but I felt so at ease and stopped crying and did a simple prayer and moved on

“Most statues of Greek gods are nude because nudity in ancient Greek art symbolized idealized beauty, heroism, and divine perfection. The Greeks viewed the human body—especially the male form—as the pinnacle of physical and intellectual excellence.
In Greek culture, nudity was associated with athletes, warriors, and deities, emphasizing strength, discipline, and moral virtue. Gods were often depicted nude to highlight their divine, superhuman qualities, setting them apart from ordinary mortals. Moreover, in philosophical terms, nudity represented truth and purity, as clothes were seen as concealing one’s true nature.
While male gods and heroes were frequently depicted nude, goddesses were often clothed in earlier periods. However, as Greek art evolved, some female deities, such as Aphrodite, were also depicted nude, signifying beauty and divine sensuality.”

“Hermes of the ready wit and the lightning smile, Wing-footed one who carries the words of the gods,
Compassionate one who guides the newly-dead to the hall of Hades and fair Persephone,
Quick-thinking one who takes interest in the world and works of mankind, whose hand we see in a run of luck and a clever scheme, I call to you.
Hermes, bearer of the herald's staff, your gifts are great.
You guard our homes with constancy and care, You grant to us a portion of your own craft and wile,
You join with us when we revel and are merry, You stand with us when we are far from home, alone.
You are ever with us, O Hermes;
He who holds in hand the good of men, I honor you.”
