Prehaps out of curiosity, loneliness, or fear, Psyche attempted to get a glimpse of her invisible husband despite the fact that Cupid told her not to do so. Psyche therefore suffered the consequence of losing her husband temporarily. In order to win Cupid back and his trust, Psyche herself went to Venus and “begged forgiveness and offered to do penance so she could see Cupid again.” Psyche finally won Cupid’s heart back, yet she had to go through a series of trials and tribulations.
If you were Psyche, would you be like her who tried everything possible to see Cupid? Do you think Psyche was wrong in an attempt to see her invisible husband by lighting a lamp? Why or why not? If you were Cupid, would you respond like him who “fled without a word at the sight of the mistrust?” Would you forgive the person who has broken the promise who made to you? Why or why not? In the movie, we heard Cupid say to Psyche, “I thought you could see me with your heart?” Can we really see a person with our own heart? How?
