I Feel Sympathy for Aeneas.

       Imagine Aeneas narrating to you the hardships that he and the Trojans experienced. Wouldn't you feel sorry for them? As Aeneas told the story of their fall in book I, I feel pity and sympathy for them. Everyone knows how hard it feels to be away from your homeland, but it is more difficult to be away with no chance of coming back because it is totally destroyed. But even though there is sympathy I am also amazed by their determination especially to Aeneas, because even though there are lots of disaster that they experienced he still encourage everyone to stay strong because he knew that there is an end for all their misfortune and sufferings. He didn't stop fighting to survive because he has a great faith to their gods and goddesses which made them successful in their journey. Even though I know that behind their sufferings, they will find and build a new home in Rome I still feel sympathy for them. Just like in every story even though the readers know that there is an end from the distress that the main character is feeling, they still feel pity for them. As what Aeneas felt during their journey, he lose his wife, father, and friends but still he strive for the sake of his comrades.
