Wives are Wives

            There are many differences between any people in the world. But I believe that wives are same from each other. They think the same way, they reason out the same way and care the same way. They are sensitive when it comes to their love ones. I know some wives that are very caring and understanding to their husbands and family. They are trying their very best to do the right thing and to make the right decisions for their love ones. They are always thinking about the position of their love ones and they do not care about themselves. They are willing to sacrifice anything just for the sake of those people who are important to them.

           

           Creusa, the wife of Aeneas is a caring and understanding wife. Being a wife of a leader that is prone to danger is not that easy. But like any of the mothers always do, they can fit right into the situations and can understand the rights and responsibilities of her husband. Creusa tries to stop Aeneas from going to Rome and just stay in their home where they are just peacefully living together. When Aeneas and them decided to flee Troy, she was lost and got killed. She just let Aeneas go and fulfil his destiny because she knows that it is the right thing to do and that is for the sake of those people who are leaning on Aeneas.

Andromache, the wife of Hector is a good and kind wife to him. She always understands the deeds of Hector to her and to the city. She understands the responsibilities of her husband so that she is not demanding for attention or special time to her. Of course, she is the wife but she rather not takes time with Hector if Hector has a responsibility to do. She lets Hector fulfil destiny and to fulfil his dreams for the land of their home.

The two of them are very much alike according to the characteristics that they possess. They really understand the sacrifice that they should do just for the sake of their love ones even though the things are prohibited from inside her heart. Aeneas and Hector are alike because they are needed by the lands of them both and the responsibilities that they do are not that much far from each other. The give and take relationship can be a good cycle to both of the two couples.

Every relationship in this world should be ready to take sacrifices just for the sake of others. All of that is alright because if you have the commitment to each other and you love each other so much then there is nothing in the world that can stop you’re feelings with each other.

Diamond in the Rough

            The most blissful victory that one can attain is that when he climbed from dirt and such difficulties and somehow enables himself to reach his goal or his ultimate dream. The challenges along the road help the person to be strong enough to encourage himself to strive better and eager himself to touch goal. That person who climbed from the bottom feels immortal when he is standing at the top of the mountain and waving his victory flag. There are many inspiring stories that the person achieved victory because he never gave up along the way and he learned from his mistakes. But most of all, the reason why they succeeded is because they never put their selves down and continued fighting ‘till the end.

I know one guy that had been there, done that but never failed to motivate his self and because of that matter, he succeeded and gained much power that he ever expected. Aeneas the leader of the desperate warriors of the fallen land of Troy had been an example for me. He fought his way back from the death of his father, the tricks and schemes of Juno and the never ending obstacles that he encountered during his way to find another land to build another kingdom and one again raise the flag of the Trojans. He never quit and he used his mind and heart in facing the challenges and in making the right decisions for those people that believe in him. He can be a good inspiration for those people who are experiencing that kind of trouble. An inspiration that proves anyone that everyone can stand up from mud and clean his self and be able to write his own triumphant story.

           

         Anyone can pass through different challenges and earn his own conquest behind those people that helped him and the challenges that made him stronger. A triumphant comeback is the most delicious victory that anyone can achieve.

            

           These challenges and difficulties that we are now facing is just a glimpse of what is problem all about. If we give up easily we can never call ourselves human being because a true human being can resist and overcome all problems that God had given to them. There are truly diamonds in the rough in this world. Even the smallest and dirtiest appearance can be the biggest and finest thing that God had been trying to tell.

Tumbled Heaven

            Burning houses, stumbling building, crying people, slaughtered body and marks of blood and war settled at the former place of the city of Troy after the Greeks had attacked it. Aeneas and some acquaintances escaped the city the find another place to build another empire and reestablish the pride of the Trojans. As Aeneas is escaping from the city of Troy, he felt like birds that lost their flight, horses that broke their legs and a boar cut into half. His city means everything to him. Ever since he was born, the city of Troy became his training ground to become a good leader.

To leave his land was the hardest challenge that Aeneas faced. His feeling can be compared to a child that lost his mother. It is like your heart being tiered apart without any anesthesia. Aeneas was losing hope but he decided to stood up and wipe the dirt on his face and decided to bring up the pride of the Trojans.

I felt pity for Aeneas’ himself and his land, Troy. I felt pity for Aeneas because they fell for a trap that they could manage not to. His land and fellow Trojans were destroyed hardheartedly by the Greeks. Also, he will travel far just to find another place to stay to and be there in peace. But the most terrible reason of mine why I felt pity for Aeneas is that they tried to be sympathetic and considerate for the peace offering of the Greeks but then, they were just fooled and that mistake became the bridge for the Greeks to destroy Troy. I also felt pity about the city of Troy because the land was destroyed without any mercy and it was powdered without any defense by its people.

After Aeneas felt, I realized that there are many bogus people around that can hurt and punish you when you let them get into your life. Also, do not trust people easily. Choose those people who deserve your trust. Trusting others that you do not know as a whole might lead to dreadful situations.
