Ok so I'm sure everyone who is even remotely into Iliad/Greek mythology type stuff has come across this image at some point

But I haven't really seen people talk about where it's from anywhere which I really think is a shame. It's a screencap from a stop-motion animated short film by Barry Purves, and if you haven't watched it already, I really recommend it. Warning that it does get quite graphic at points and it might not be everybody's thing (which is totally ok btw).

It has a reupload on youtube titled Achilles animation 1995. It's only 10 ish minutes long, so if you have nothing else to do and are a stop-motion animation/Iliad obsessed person like me, go give it a watch.

Unrelated to most of this post, but if you want to watch something less intense(??) but in the same vein as this short film, check out the animated tales of the world episode about Persephone. It's also up on youtube.

I am jealous of those who think more deeply, who write better, who draw better, who look better, who live better, who love better than I.

The answer is not comparison. We are in our own personal journey. We should look within rather than outside. Look how far you have come! If you aren’t happy where you are right now, then you owe it to yourself to keep on walking. Step by step you will arrive to the dreamed destination. You are in control, never forget that.
