Explanation:

During his return home after the Trojan War, Odysseus ends up on the island of Cyclops Polyphemus. Odysseus enters the giant's cave with his men. When Polyphemus returns, he prevents them from leaving the cave, covering the entrance with a boulder. Then, he rips open and eats some of the crew. With the crew in mind, he quickly devises an escape plan. He tells Polyphemus that his name is "Nobody" and gives him wine to drink. The drunk giant falls asleep. Odysseus and his crew find a wooden pole, set it on fire and strike Polyphemus in the eye, blinding him. As Polyphemus screams in pain, the other cyclopians on the island respond to his call. Being outside the cave, they ask him who hurt him. Polyphemus replies, "Nobody's killing me," so the rest of the Cyclops leave him. Finally, Odysseus manages to escape and taunts the cyclops, who prays to his father Poseidon for revenge.

The main character's journey home takes him to the mermaid island. Sirens singing beautifully attract sailors who, listening, steer their ships towards the rocks. Odysseus plugs his people's ears with beeswax so they won't hear them sing. He himself wants to hear the sirens sing, so he orders the crew to tie him to the mast so he cannot go to the sirens when he hears their voices. Accordingly, the crew releases Odysseus after he begins to act calmly. Only then do they take the wax out of their ears.

After departing from the mermaid island area, Odysseus ends up on the island of Ogygia. It is inhabited by the nymph Calypso, who, in love with Odysseus, forces him to stay with her - it lasts 7 years. Hermes later comes to Calypso saying that the gods said she has to free Odysseus. Calypso promises Odysseus immortality if he stays, but he decides to return to his wife Penelope. Then he builds a raft and leaves the island.

After a sea storm, Odysseus ends up on Feaki Island. There, Nauzykaa meets him, who takes him to the palace of her father, King Alkinoos. While staying with the king, Odysseus recounts his adventures in his travels after the Trojan War. Alkinoos then gives Odysseus a ship and sends him to his home country, Ithaca.

everyday, people all over the world are making sacrifices; all for different reasons. some people may choose to do more simple sacrifices, like, "my daughter is receiving an award at school, but i also have an appointment, so i will decide to cancel that appointment to be there with my daughter" although she is cancelling her appointment, she can easily reschedule it, and spend her time with nore important thungs in life: being there with her daughter. this will make her daughter happy too because she is recieveing an award for her hard work, and it brings us happiness when our hard work is noticed and appreciated.

on the other hand, some people dont know when to make a sacrifice, ir bow to make one. well, making a sacrifice is when you do something for someone else other than yourself, for someone else's happiness, not so you can gain something in return. you do it for them, not for you. so, anyone can make a sacrifice, even the most simplest ones, like giving up the tv for a sibling or a sibling with homework, when you could be doing something else. the point is to others, when you can be doing something else. you do it out of the fact that you want to them, not so that it can benefit you.

making sacrifices benefit people in many ways, it can bring a smile to there face knowing someone is willing to and bring kindess. alot of people tend to feel unwanted and that no one is there for them, but if we show kindess and sacrifice the less importnat things in life for the most important things in life, people will once again feel happiness and more at ease knowing that someone is or was there for them, even if it be only once.

hope this , and let me know if there are any typos, it's hard typing on a phone : )
