According to Pausanias, the deity most worshipped at Thespiae was Eros
Thespis and Thespiae, however, are derived from the noun θέσπις (théspis, "divinely inspired")
Thespian meaning "actor" comes from the legendary first actor named Thespis
Parmenides (c. 400 BC), one of the pre-socratic philosophers, makes Eros the first of all the gods to come into existence
Eros was depicted as an adult male who embodies sexual power, and a profound artist
The Orphic and Eleusinian Mysteries featured Eros as a very original god
The fourth day of every month was sacred to him

We ascribe emotional meaning to events, and to people, and to our own lives by plotting them into partial or provisional stories

My advice would be to create your own transformative story and live it, embody it, as much as possible
