Some similarities

In the epic poem, Aeneid, there was a part there, that Aeneas was to go on the battle, but Creusa, his wife is stopping him from going into the battle. Creusa cared for Aeneas and also for her son. This shows how much Creusa loves her family. She doesn’t want Aeneas to go on the battle because she is afraid of what might happen to Aeneas after the battle.

On the other hand, a same scene like on the scene of Aeneas and Creusa happened, the scene of Hector and Andromache. She stopped Hector to go onto the battle because she is afraid of what will happen to Hector. But the only difference with that from the scene of Aeneas and Creusa is that Hector did not listen to her but go on with the battle and at the Hector died.

After reading those stories, I realized that every woman especially mothers, will do everything just to save her family. 

Challenges, things that make us stronger

          We never learn lessons whenever we are committing mistakes. These challenges serve as one of the things that make us stronger. We learned lessons after encountering those challenges. And challenges make one self know and realize what is wrong and what is right. Aeneas is an example of such person who did not fail to do his task to save in land. He got the triumph, though many challenges and hindrances made him weaker but those things, he made it as an inspiration in winning the battle. He can be a good inspiration to those people who are encountering such problems. You just need to know why you are there. Do not give up. Giving up is one of the worst things that you will do in your life. Always remember that for every problem, though it’s big or small, there is always a solution, meaning you should not give. God is just giving us those challenges to know how strong our faith to Him.
