If you Go Away...


     You know, it is really nice and lovely to have your partner, especially if he or she is the one who you really love. It is not that simple for us to not see them for a decade or a half, even an hour. It seems that we're incomplete without them and so, we used to be with them as possible. That moment with your one and only love is the moment which you're going to treasure for both of them.

     But what if one of you must go to accomplish his or her responsibility and her heart. Can you still tell yourself that 'I am complete' ? Well, maybe for others, yes, but probably, many will answer no. Can you wait for them for a decade? For five years? That's not easy and many of us will lose patience waiting for them.

      Same with the case of Creusa and Andromache. They had the same fate as what we are talking about a while ago. Their husbands went to fight for their nation and for their fellow Trojans. For the women, you will found that it's not that easy to lose them for that moment of time. Remember, there's a war, and many of us will say that if possible, they will not enter the battle.

     But in speaking of love, how do they love their husbands? It's obvious that they cannot withstand the moments that their partner in life is not with them and they're fighting. You'll say that if only I could help them.
 
     If you are going away to your love, remember, you need to supply your heart with the treasures of your bonding. Even a kiss will do. Because sometimes, the couple in this situation don't last. What you only need is trust, loyalty and love to your beloved ones.

If Life is an Arena

     Have you ever wondered what is the feeling of any boxer who will enter the ring? Or how about a wrestler in an octagon? Isn't that you feel nervous but you tell to yourself that you must win it. You challenge yourself through fighting and learn what you need to control to gain what we call 'Victory'.What if a life is an arena?

     Life is itself, an arena for any kinds of challenges. You can't just live without any problem at all. If you ever imagine that the reward for every winner is that you'll get more experienced and at the same time, know what the nature of life is. 

     If you're going to look and read Aeneid, it will show what is a what-so-called 'Life'. You encounter many struggles in your life and sometimes you think that you should give this up for my enemy. Look at Aeneas, he is strong, brave and a good leader. Though they encountered many problems, they're able to accomplish the fate of Aeneas.

     We all know that God is also our teammate in all of the struggles but we must not only rely to Him but we need to act also to help ourselves while walking through the journey of life.If there is a struggle, accept and face it. Don't dare to be a mermaid and run. If you're in this, it is better to die fighting rather than dying without anything accomplished in life. 

A Terrible Destruction

     It is not that easy for every being that their habitat was crushed by someone else. It is the place where you had your memories of your childhood days and also, you were born there and realize that this land gave the place for you to be born on land.How about you? Can your eyes take what you just see is that your hometown is burning? Can you?
     
     Think about it again. Can you see what Aeneas saw and how he felt about the burning city of Troy? It is somewhat heart crushing and anger will fill your heart for those who destroy it. Your place where your memories of your past will be destroyed and incidentally, will vanish in the map. How sad it is to have a destroyed hometown. Imagine that Troy is Aeneas' place where he loved, laughed, and whatsoever and for just a misunderstanding of the people, it will be gone. How sad it is.

     If I'm in his position, I will do my best to revive my old city of Troy. I will never let my hometown to be destroyed. I feel pity to him since me too, fled from the land where I was born. A terrible destruction will destroy your memories of the past, especially the most treasured ones.
