Salve
Eros is seen as both the personification and the God of love. He either came into being along with the other Protogenoi or is considered the companion/ son of Aphrodite. Eros is seen as the personification of live, by which i mean that Eros encompasses everything related to love. This is not just sexual love, but also love between family, friends, between a human and his pet or for his hobby, etc.. It can be a number of things.
