Read the excerpt from The Odyssey. Their secret! as she heard it told, her knees grew tremulous and weak, her heart failed her.
With eyes brimming tears she ran to him, throwing her arms around his neck, and kissed him Which theme do these lines support? Good leaders show personal responsibility.

I think the theme for that scene is that love and family make a homecoming worth while but i could be wrong. My reasoning is that in the odyssey, it is crucial to remember the wife’s devotion to her husband and so he only felt good when he received her attention. Granted he is a player and cheated on his wife, he always respected her and essentially demanded the same from her. And after is long journey back home, it is rewarding to see good things such as his wife still staying loyal to him after the craziness he went through.
