Daphne and the Laurel Wreath

The Greek God of the sun and archery, Apollo, challenged Eros to an archery competition. Eros, in response, shot two arrows: one that had a gold tip and caused the person maimed by it to be filled with unbridled lust, and the other lead tipped arrow would cause the victim to be filled with the opposite feeling. The gold arrow hit Apollo, while the lead arrow hit the daughter of the river god Peneus. Apollo endlessly chased Daphne, and after a long chase asked her father for help, who then transformed he into a tree. Apollo, however, still was enthralled with her, and made the leaves of the tree into a wreath that he wore around his neck, becoming one of his symbols.

I believe youth is a mindset, and slowly erodes with age and responsibility. As children, we are given very few important tasks, and as we mature, we are trusted with more and more responsibilities. This takes away from our feeling of bliss and ignorance ie youth. If one is pampered and catered to their whole life, I believe they can achieve eternal youth, and live freely and carelessly until those who pamper him cease to do so.
