The Three Graces in Myth

     Are they related to the furies of fates, those three Graces?Armfuls of blossoming flowers, clothed in roses, marigolds, and anemones; hair full of daisies, it is Thalia, the Grace Bloom.
Lit up by rays of sunlight, clothed in reflective gold, silver and sparkling diamond, blindly shining, it is Aglaia, the Grace Brilliance.
The One so happy, upon her face a wide smile, eyes agleam, clothed in ribbons and a dance, it is Euphrosyne, the Grace Joy.

       Thalia, the Grace of Bloom, is a productive thinker. She guides the bud to blossom into bloom, drops its petals to grow into fruit. She is beauty.Thalia guides man the artisan to make useful things of beauty, such as the clothes we wear, the house we live in, furniture and such.
      Euphrosyne, the Grace of Joy, is a practical thinker. She is goodness. She guides man the doer in the course of his social actions. Man capable of doing right or wrong, achiever of happiness or not, right is doing goodness and results in joy.
      Aglaia, the Grace of Brilliance, is a speculative thinker. She is Truth. She guides man the Knower in the learning and acquiring of all sorts of Knowledge. Knowledge shall lead to truth and truth is brilliant.
