There is a really nice people that has a vital importance on the Ocidental upbringing. They are called Greeks. We developed the Hellenic civilization which was really cool and sophisticated. On that Age, we used to love the Philosophy, Sciences, all kind of party, and Arts.

Our talent was so special that our culture past through the centuries of time and arrived to the Modern days.

We used to considered “man” the center of all things. We used to beleive in Gods, but we were also very rational. We actually still are. To us, the beauty was the fundamental point to find the balance and harmony. I actually have an amazing calligraphy, and I also draw pretty good, by the way.

My people created the writting in the IX B.C. We were the first people to write from the left to right and from upside down.We also consagrated  lots of legends and interesting myths, and all of them were past orally through generations and generations.

All these legends and myths has a great value for us that goes beyond the invisible of time, a time where models and examples goes beyond the appearances and circumstances, and you can get these models and recreate them. The Psychology studies these models to denote archetypes, in other words, typical models of behavior.

And these are some reasons I love to be Greek.
