rling the sail and sailyard far across the sea.That didn’t phase him one bit it just made him stronger, to show Poseidon that he wasn’t going to stop him from going home to his wife.I believe that the reason for Odysseus being so sly, intelligent and loving his wife so much has to do with the way he was brought up to think.

By that time it is kind of late, we all have a little Odysseus in each of us it is that ours have different qualities....
