Trojan Horse

In the story of the Trojan Horse, Odysseus devises a plan to win the conflict with the Trojans. While the Greeks were strong, the Trojans were stronger, and had great walls that made victory for the Greeks very difficult. Odysseus, the most cunning or the Greeks, devised a plan where the Greeks would feign surrender, and offer a gift to the Trojans. This gift, the Trojan horse, contained the entire Greek attack force. After the Greeks made it into Troy, they made quick work of defeating the entire Trojan army.
This story speaks to the lesson of brains over brawn. While the Trojans were more equipped and prepared because they were in their own city, the Greeks were still able to defeat them. Odysseus throughout Greek mythology is shown as extremely cunning, and uses this to affect many situations.

My dream journey involves retiring on a sailboat and going anywhere the current takes me. Just as was done hundreds of years ago, I would cross the sea and simply explore all that I do not know. To me, the appeal of a sailboat is the limitless amount of possibilities. One could sail the world for a lifetime and never visit the same port twice.
