Today was not very good. I was put in a situation where i had to choose weather to KILL a man or leave him alive. It was a close call but he is still living. Irus, this is the beggar that took me on not knowing that i am the great Odysseus. I was deciding against killing him and i chose to go with the gentler of punches just to get him to the ground, i mean it really is his fault, his almost dying and all, because He took the first punch and i get a little heated when im not on the battle field, i am eager to fight once again, but then I lectured Amphinomos and in tonights blog, i would like to reflect on the great words of me, Odysseus. I basically said: of all that are living, whats the point of having beliefs if the gods just come in and choose what happens to you. When i refer to our minds being like days because they are dark and light, it means nothign because the gods can completely over power that feeling. Then i explained how once i too thought to be happy but not accutally acheiving that feeling. Amphinomos was listening attentivley as i said be at peace with the gods and to not go against what they choose because it is the right thing to do. I said i saw these suitors living like pigs dishonoring the gods, and the wife they were fighting for, so may the gods tell them to go home and to not face , me, and set foot home. I cannot tell if they really understood what i was saying but i have had a rough day, farewell, and goodnight.
