So That Makes More Sense... Kinda

I found it really interesting to watch the fall of Troy from the opposite side. In the past I always wondered why in the world they would just see this random horse on the beach, assume it was from the gods, and haul it in. At the time they put so much stock in signs, that if snakes from the sea consumed the sons of the only man against the horse, they knew it must have been a sign. But still, it’s interesting how when under stress they were much more likely to throw reason to the wind. They never really stopped to think. How often do we over-extrapolate or overthink things when we are under stress?

  1. I agree with you that its interesting seeing it from a different point of view. I never really understood it either until I read these chapters.
