Favorite Goddess

My favorite goddess is Athena. She is the goddess of wisdom and craftsmanship. I like Athena because she is very smart. She disguised Odysseus so he could surprise his friends and family. Athena made him Odysseus young and strong when he was done fighting and returned home. In the Odyssey, when the suitors were attacking him Athena shielded Odysseus and his son.

Odysseus' Journey

I think he felt like he was up against the world. He probably felt bad because he led his men into the cyclops' cave and some of his men got killed and eaten. His personal goals were to probably get home and see his wife. He probably also had a goal to lose the least amount of men as possible. I wouldn't have gone into the cave i would've stayed on the boat and tried to go home as quickly as possible.

My hero

My hero would have to be my dad, Brian Miller. My dad was always hardworking and had a lot of courage. He always did what was right. He always went out of his way to help people even if it meant he had to quit something that he was doing for himself. He was the first person to go to college on his side of the family. He also went to iraq and lost his life for his country. He inspired me to become someone in the medical field so i can help injured people.
