Family or country?

 Aeneas , lead the battle against the reckless and surprising assault of the Greeks by the use of a foolish cover.  At this story , his wife , pleaded to choose their family over fighting for the country. Aeneas 's family is composed of his wife , his son and his father. Aquite small but they are still a family that loves each other. It has a distinct situation on what happened to Iliad where Hector is asked by his wife , Andromache to save his family including his son Astyanax. Here ,Hector died from the cruel hands of war. As for Aeneas 's story , their safeness embarks  for his new mission and jouney : to raise Troy once again. As for me , This conclude that most people fight for their country for the sake of their families for they are also affected if their country was  destroyed.

The extremes of defeat and victory

As a being in this world, we people encounter problems in our daily lives . It may be big or small but it is how we handle it until its end. It may result to an ultimate victory or a terrible loss. One could suffer an unbearable loss , but we should think of it , what could be our mistakes? . This apply to the defeat of troy , they should have not trusted the Greeks nor their offering/ gift. But always remember after a storm, there comes a rainbow . We need to think that having a good solution to our problem would  greatly increase the chance of having a victory.
They Greeks earned what they worked for at the end. They defeated and conquered troy . They used different elements and tactics including a foolish wooden horse as a cover . Greeks are the masters of tacticians, they fooled and deceived Troy once , which earns them for their victory

The Ruins of war Blog 4.1

   How  someone feel sad? when he got bruised or scarred? when he lost a friend? well , there are many reasons for feeling sad, one of it is seeing your town slowly getting torn by war. When your place is being attacked by many foreigners, you have to choose whether you defend it and die or to escape it and live. Good thing Aeneas choose something in between those options. They defended the town at first , but when he found out that there is no hope , he ran with his family. Seeing your Town burn into ashes by foreign people is harsh at your part. You grown up there and you encounter your daily lives there and it will just fade away like a bubble popped in thin air. All that will remain are the ashes that will signify your town. It also hurts at the part of  Aeneas and their people had trusted on the Horse as a gift , but these Greeks are mischievous and sly. Its hard for the part of Aeneas to move on and find another place or hometown , but the gods foretell that Aeneas will be successful in finding a new home.
