“May
the force be with you.”
The Odyssey, an epic
adventure by the blind Greek poet, Homer, toys with
all of the human emotions. Additionally, this
timeless story also relates to many blockbuster hits
seen during this century. Star Wars, in itself
is an odyssey out in the depths of space similarly we have Space Odyssey 2001, Kon Tiki, Apollo
13, Forrest Gump, and many others. The
Odyssey, is an adventure, nothing more unless one
lives it. When an individual really becomes the lead
character such as Odysseus, Luke Skywalker, or
Indiana Jones, it does become more than a drama and
adventurous story. It becomes real, and part of you.
Something one will cherish forever. That is what The
Odyssey in itself is. So now join with us as we
travel into the heart of Homer’s Odyssey.
Just click on the jar to the right and begin our
journey.
