Block: 4th
There are many Greek Goddesses but only one of them can have the wisdom, skills, and war. It wouldn’t be right if one wasn’t different. Athena means “The Goddess of Wisdom & Useful Arts”. Athena is one of the many goddesses that have got a gift that no other goddess has. Athena taught mankind various skills such as agricultural to women. The Government of Greece should rename me, D. Callaham as Athena because I have the best skills that many people could ever ask for and I have a lot of wisdom.
The government should name Athena because I have the skills & wisdom. By renaming me Athena I could show everyone the skills I have such as, Motivating personal goals, social skills, and also emotional awareness. Also by being named Athena I can also show people I have wisdom. However, being named Athena come a big responsibility; you have to prove to everybody that you can take on the challenges that Athena took on to earn the name Athena. Although wise and thoughtful, Athena is no shy maiden. Wisdom can be portrayed as anything and anyone can have it but the right person can only show the true meaning of wisdom, and I can be that person. You can always find a person with the best skills and the right amount of wisdom.
The second reason the government should let me change my name to Athena is because the use of arts I can portray. With portraying my useful arts people can know my mood and my life. Also by using my arts it can represent my role of being named by a goddess which role represents warfare. Using classical arts is highly usual for a female deity, that’s why I would like to change my name because I can show people that it’s not unusual for females to portray classical art. Although, by being named Athena people would expect for me too really earn the name though I won’t ruin the name Athena. However, by portraying my useful of arts also lets people know what type of person I am and what I can be.
I would be honored to be named Athena because I can show people my real character, but I will also show the people and myself that I can believe in myself and carry the name Athena very well. Many people believe that you always have to have a name that fits you and your personality, which you don’t. They might also think that being able to use your wisdom and skills you will have to be a very smart person which is not the case. I’ve loved to be named Athena because it’s a cute name and I can be loyal to the name and also make the name well-known. There is no one else that can take the name Athena but me.
