Are failure and bad decisions a good thing? What can we learn from them? Odysseus proves to us in many ways throughout Homer’s “The Odyssey”, that many different life lessons are learned through our own actions. Whether or not these actions were good, we must always reflect on our actions and their outcomes to see what we have learned from it. Odysseus’ journey throughout “The Odyssey” teaches us many valuable lessons including not being pretentious, being careful of the unknown, and to accept your fate for what it is and not try to change it.
