Right Choice

         We all have responsibilities in this world. Responsibilities are given to us because they know we can do those responsibilities. Like us, students, we have responsibilities of being a student like making our homework and projects, respects teachers and principal, review whenever we have exams and a lot more. Sometimes, we need to sacrifice for that responsibility of us. Sometimes we really need to choose.

        Have you heard about Aeneas of the Aeneid and Hector of Iliad? Well, they just showed of making a decision of what to choose between their family and service for the country.

        Aeneas is really a great warrior according to the book. Aeneas that time was about to fight against the Greeks but Creusa, his wife, stopped him. Creusa told Aeneas not to continue the fight for the sake of her and their son Ascanius. It was really hard to choose between the responsibility of being a warrior and responsibility of being a husband and father of his family. But for Aeneas, he chose his family. I think he did a good choice. On the other hand, Hector of Illiad, also had that experienced. He needs to choose between his wife, Andromache and son, Astyanax, and his responsibility of being a warrior. But unlike Aeneas who chose his family, Hector chose his responsibility of giving service to his country. I think Hector chose that because he thinks of more people than himself and his family.

        Aeneas and Hector made good decisions. They have their own reasons of why they chose that responsibility instead of others. Creusa and Andromache prevented their husbands to stopped fighting against other group of men for the sake of their husband and son.
