The Aeneid is a myth poem written by the Roman poet Virgil that describes an origin story about how Rome was founded. It states that Aeneas, son of Aphrodite and Anchises, fled Troy while the Greeks attacked and Troy burned. It then says that he sailed away and founded the city of Rome.

The Odyssey is a myth poem written by the Greek writer Homer that tells a tale of the Greek hero Odysseus (also called Ulysses) on his journey in the Trojan War. Odysseus had created a pact with other Greek kings (mentioned in the Iliad) that if Helen of Sparta were to be captured, the Greeks would all save her. So when Helen was captured, Odysseus had no choice but to take his men of Ithaca and go to war. After he left, suitors tried to wed his wife, Penelope but all failed. He encountered many obstacles on his journey, and could even see Ithaca, when an ocean current carried many of his men out to sea, prolonging his return. When he got back, he disguised himself as a beggar to find information about what had happened. Then he attacked the suitors. A bunch of stuff happened (not necessary to your question) and he won back Ithaca.

In a short story, an old man carefully removes from his cupboards a set of
hram777 [196]

Answer:

D. The beauty of the everyday and the importance of small rituals

Explanation:

Making a tee doesn't seem as much of a problem or a task that takes a big effort.

However, in this story, we see this old man passionately and carefully completing this everyday task. He carefully opens his teacups set, carefully calculates the amount of tea needed, peacefully waits for the water to boil, enjoys the smell of the tee and finally shares cup of tea with his wife enjoying in the time they spent together.

This process could've been done in a much faster pace, more hectically, doing something else simultaneously, and the result would've been the same - a cup of tea with his wife.

But, by showing us all these small rituals and careful preparation, this story conveys the importance of enjoying small, everyday things and helps us see the beauty in them.
