Chimera, Beginning.

The pronunciation to my blog is, Chi - Meh - Rah.


Chi as in the ending to Tai Chi. The pronunciation is the same, the origin is truly a spectacular wonder. 


Instead of writing the whole direct answer to your question, I would instead give wto different scenario in which the word "Chimera" originated from. In which, the word will originate from two different era with an entirely different meaning. So my beloved readers, all you have to do is choose the right answer and voila', you would be right. 


Chimera Part I


Chimera as many of you,who don't know, its an actual mythology creature based on the ancient Greek. It was describe in the story of Lost Paradise by Milton of Ancient Greek. According to Greek Mythology, Chimera was a creature with three different sets of head, one of a lioness, one of a snake and a goats head. (Three huge migraine in one creature). It was said that the Chimera main purpose was to kill and terrorize humanity as well as to conquer the land of immortals. Well, what I really think about this creature is that this is one awkward bizarre creature with one awkward bizarre body. Not only they have three separate head, but they spit fires as well. Based on the (Oh Mighty) Greek, Chimera greatest ability was to spit fire. Isn't that just a bit off, three head spitting fire. Chimera make Lock Ness  Monster looks so normal right now.
Moving on, this PMS three head dragon invaded a town called Lycia in northern Greece. And like any other monster it rampaged across the city causing much grief to the city, so then the town called their own version of Superman name Bellerophon.


Then, with his might sword, Bellerophon stab old mighty three headed beast and caused the fire within the beast to kill itself. Ladies and gentleman, with that is my first version to which my blog tittle originated from. 

Chimera Part II


Chi - Meh - Ra, originated from the English word, which brings the meaning of an illusion. Chimera ; -an illusion of fabrication of the mind; especially known as an unrealized dream ( Merriam Webster). Simply that, nothing more. Chimera is a synonym for words like ; - Mirage, dream, illusion.. 


So there you go, two different sides to the coins. Which one makes most sense, does my blog, originated from a PMS three headed creature with major problems on their head (Get it?) or is it a word to describe dreamers and illusion? Well personally, I love the three headed creature for its uniqueness, but lets just stick to normal English, shall we?

P.S : I wonder, whether or not the Chimera (Creature) had three different sets of vaginas as well? (Chimera is said to be a female creature)
