Odysseus fights back

In the Odyssey, at the end Odysseus kills all of the suitors. He was in his own house when he killed all of the suitors with the help from his son Telemachus. They killed all of the suitors because Odysseus believes that they were disrespecting his home, town, and his wife. Over all the suitors were disrespectful to his home, it was a mess the destroyed by being the sloppy men that they were. They disrespected his town that he made with his bare hands. They especially disrespected his wife, no women should have to be tempted to re marry just because Odyssues said that she could if he didn't return back to Ithaca before their son started to grow facile hair.

I like this scene because, I believe that everyone should stand up for their rights, Odysseus did just that. When he finally returned home he stood up for his rights and disrespected those men just like how they disrespected him, his town and wife and son. No I can not relate to this scene but I do believe that it is a great scene. It shows that Odyssues really does truly care about his wife, son, and town. To kill all of those men just for disrespecting him and everything that he lived for, that takes a lot of courage. It is not funny, sad because all of the men died, but also very inspiring. It is inspiring because Odysseus stood up for himself just like everyone else should. Never let anyone walk over you and everything that you live for. Do unto others as others do unto you.

The song that i have chosen for this scene by We come as Romans, and it is called Intentions. I chose this song because of the lyrics, not so much for the sound. The lyrics and wonderful, this one part is why i chose it, "Be my strength to tear away this blindness that makes us unable to see what is standing beside us. I'll be your strength, follow my lead." Those few words of part of the song just made me think of Telemachus following his father and having his back when they were fighting. Telemachus just being there for his father and helping him out when he needed him.
