Dionysus
In classical mythology, Dionysus is the god of wine, the inspirer of ritual madness and ecstasy, and a major figure of Greek mythology, and one of the twelve Olympians, among whom Greek mythology treated Dionysus as a late arrival. The geographical origins of his cult were unknown to the classical Greeks, but almost all myths depicted him as having "foreign" origins: typical of the god of the epiphany, "the god that comes".
He was also known as Bacchus and the frenzy he induces, bakkheia. He is the patron deity of agriculture and the theater. He was also known as the Liberator), freeing one from one's normal self, by madness, ecstasy, or wine. The divine mission of Dionysus was to mingle the music of the aulos and to bring an end to care and worry. Scholars have discussed Dionysus' relationship to the "cult of the souls" and his ability to preside over communication between the living and the dead.
In Greek mythology, Dionysus is made to be a son of Zeus and Semele; other versions of the myth contend that he is a son of Zeus and Persephone. He is described as being womanly or "man-womanish".
- he was born in Thebes
- the son of Zeus and Semele
- He taught men culture of the vine and the mysteries of his worship and everywhere they accepted him
- The mother whom he had never seen was not forgotten ,he took her up to Olympus for the reason that his mother is a motor but she is a mother of a god
- God of wine could b e kind and beneficent but may also be cruel and drive people on to frightful deeds
- Worship of Dionysus was centered in 2 ideas: of freedom and ecstatic joy; of savage brutality.
- He was the power which sometimes made men commit frightful and atrocious crimes
- He was the assurance that death does not end it all
- He rescue his mother so he was embodiment of the life that stronger than death

Environment
The environment is so beautiful
It’s seem so small yet so full of life
The environment is so relaxing
Seeing it make me happy and relax
Many big and small creatures around
Running, flying under the blue sky
Some creature seem so small and cute
And other seem big and so frightening
Nature gives us food and water to live
Making her mad, make us suffer and sad
Taking care of nature is important
To have happy, wealthy and longer life
Nature serves us our shelter to live in
Providing our daily needs to live in
We can find in nature many new things
That we can use to live a better life.
Dedicated to the youth^^
Youth must love nature so we must not destroy it. We can get our needs in nature. Its is beautiful to be destroy. We must appreciate its beauty.
