Greek Myth- Persephone Part 2
Demeter's plan was to create Havoc and force Zeus to help her make Hades return her daughter. Her plan worked and Hades agreed to release Persephone.
Before she was released, Hades treated her to a meal. In this meal she ate 7 seeds of a pomegranate so Hades remade the deal. Because she ate the food of the underworld she had to return to him for 7 months of the year, the other months she returned above ground to be with her mother.

まずはご相談ください😊
Did you know reindeer can see in the dark. They have night vision due to living in darkness for many weeks of the year.
Also 1963 is one of the coldest winters recorder, with temperatures of -27.2
Though it is the coldest time of the year, this is actually the time where the Earth is closest to the sun! You would think it would be warmer.
It is coming close to the end of 2023. Do you remember the goals you made for yourself in January?
Did you reach your goals? Will you try again next year?
