feeling under sunshine...

The warm sunlight falls on the ground, like the bright sky is raining gold. I am bathing in the colorful aura, which enchanting me forever. Air is soft, and earth is fragrant. I am placed in the lovely campus, with cute creatures all around. Sitting on the lush lawn, I willing to be a grass. To hear the whisper among ants, and share their fairy tales. The water in lake showed multi colors under this gorgeous sunshine. It's not spring, but the rainbow from the heaven broken and fell into the world, which precipitate dreams. My childhood starts to show in my mind, like the old-fashioned movie, which I can never forget. Crying and smiling, playing and studying, beautiful memories fill out my brain. I dip in the magnificent present from god...

Thoughts about "Ithaca"

Odysseus knows the essence of life. As he contacts more physical enjoyments in his journey, he gets deeper in desires, just like what the poem says. Mother-of-pearl and coral, amber and ebony, and sensual perfumes of all kinds. These are really gorgeous, so people are easily enchanted by them. Human can hardly resist temptation, while Odysseus is also a human. He also does something disloyalty to his wife. On the other hand, he meets a bunch of frustrations everyday, like loses crews who can be considered as his brothers. Therefore, it's normal for him to get really frustrated, so his improper behavior can be seen as a way to abreact sadness. It can't be his wish to indulge because he is an outsanding wit with great wisdom. Odysseus keeps Ithaca, his ultimate goal, in his mind, or he stays in Circe's island to spend the rest of his life. Enjoying physical entertainment is just humanity. Actually, they are necessary experiences for a man to learn something, and that's way that Odysseus gets his lessons.
