something that is not real

She sat there, considering the nature of truth. After all, a myth could be made into a truth if one could simply convince enough people of it. One definition of truth that horrified her was, “A generally believed statement.” Uhm…that could be anything!

a myth is something that people have no reign over. it exists independent of human constraints. they are tales of pure imagination and fantastical dreams. a myth makes someone think about the impossible, and consider its possibility.

This is a reminder that I need to read The Myth of Sisyphus by Camus. The only myth that I know very well is the myth pertaining to Persephone and Hades, where he kidnaps her in his chariot and takes her below to the Underworld, and he has her eat the forbidden fruit–the pomegranate. I wrote a poem pertaining to this once.

You’re a myth. A thought up story told inside my head. Of pure angelic qualities, a flawless myth you are. You tell me you love me, you touch me tenderly. But you’re just a myth. A myth I wish were proven true.

I already had this word! I guess it’s the first one? Maybe I should have put in a name. Oh well. Maybe next time, but I’ll keep typing anyway. For some reason Dexter’s Laboratory comes to mind. I don’t know why. “Where impossible things may happen” I like that.

Stargate and ancient artifacts. That’s what I think of. The tyranny of Ra and Apophis. Whatever, I’m sure that’s not what you were thinking. Myths built civilization as we know it, and it seems like they will bring it down. Bring it tumbling down.

Legendary. Based in reality. Morality tale reinforcing values. Boiled down to the basics. Archetypical. Culturally unique. Quest for the nearly impossible. Wings built from feathers. Escaping the tower.

Myth is a myth, not a math, not a fact, not anything palpable a la James Agee, not Knosville on summer nights, just mythic,
mythological, mythesterious, you know.
Saroyan
It is a myth that all people can and want to understand one another. It is far easier to degrade and belittle those around us than it is to accept them. Why this is so, I don’t know. Perhaps we need a new myth to live by because the old is merely depressing.

there are plenty of things that can be called myths. i can’t think of any right now but im sure there are a lot out there. myth hmm…4 letter word that can be taken into so many different ways by different individuals. how i take it is going to be completely different from the person that sees this next because i am my own unique individual.

what is a myth? It’s a story? a wish? sparked with maybe a little truth? Who is to say what is myth and what is not couldn’t all myths become fact within seconds?

myths are people places things that you read as a child. wonder about when growing up. greek and roman mythology. myths become anything and everything as you get older, because your mind opens and you dont know what is real anymore and real actually “is”
dem
All greek stories are myths likes hercules and the trojan war. usually dealing with some sort of higher power or magical elements, elements that are not seen in the world today as possibilities.

homeric. a story that has a deeper meaning. something i studied and did a play about when i was in 7th grade. something i wrote when i was in 10th grade.

You know what they say about big hands, right? Wrong. Its a myth. Which I found myself debunking last Saturday night after a wild girls night out at the bar. He really had my expectations high too. Everything was great until his pants dropped. All I could think is “What the flamingo am I doing with this guy?” Needless to say I bolted while he was in the bathroom.

a myth is something to aspire to be involved with sometimes, things are sometimes out of reach so we lable it a myth, it can be a story or the truth
bob
Feeble lies no one will ever know the truth to. nonsense. theories that many or one deem to be true.
Erica
Stories that explain a certain phenomenon. it can be passed down from generation to generation, and is influenced by culture and tradition. Different myths have different reasons for being, but all spirtitual, and educational in a way.

Something that isn’t real. Like love, happiness, joy and…love. Eh, maybe it’s just a myth for me.

My dad is nice.
Myth.
He makes me feel no anger.

He needlessly prods.
Truth.
He makes me jubilant consistently.

myths are the basis for stories
somehow everyone knows about them.

did they have myths that they thought were crazy?

a myth isn’t anything real- it’s something that doesn’t follow the rules of legend. it’s nto anything to be worried about, just a myth in itself a myth to rule them all a myth that won’t last a myth that can change the world a myth that isn’t in your head but in your mind, in that small little film in between space and time and brain and mind and head

The myth of my life is that I don’t quite know the ending yet, though I am anxious to read it’s story.
Mary Lou Wynegar
I looked at all of the previous writings about myth and they were boring. Myths are sexy and full of dirty stuff even though you read it in high school. But myth is also something that we live. Like writing. It’s a myth that anyone can write. But this website tries to make you forget it isn’t true.
alex
its something we dont know about we dont know what to do with them other than tell them and the mythbusters prove and disprove them they are are stories that are super awesome even though they might not be real

‘i can’t do this right now’
my life
drifts
by me a
bowl full of rice
that are scattered
not for a wedding
but at a funeral
– not a real one –
a last goodbye.
