  31. In the story Poseidon, the author said that Poseidon was a very difficult god, changeful and quarrelsome. To me, this symbolized that even though he is a god, he still makes mistakes, and that people, although beautiful, will still make mistakes, and in that way gods and people are not so different after all.
