As we continue to look at the story of Cupid and Psyche, Cupid fled away from Psyche at the sight of her mistrust; yet Psyche begged forgiveness and offered to do penance so as to restore relationship with her husband Cupid. Psyche successfully completed a series of formidable tasks given by her mother-in-law Venus though she had gone through trials and tribulations. Psyche overcome obstacles and afflictions because she bore love in her heart.
The word 'love' pronounced as 'tiang' in Taiwanese means 'hurt' or 'pain'. It actually contains a paradoxical concept here, "if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more Love." said Mother Teresa, a Nobel Peace Prize winner in 1979. What do you think is Love? Are you willing to sacrifice anything, even your life for a person or a thing you love?
