DESTINY: Gilgamesh tablet 11

In this tablet we can learn more about Utnapishtim´s identity. He tells the story of how he became an immortal. I found very interesting how this story is extremely similar to the story of Noah´s Ark in the bible. I think this is so incredible since although the epic occurs in a different region and civilization from that from the bible, the story of Noah is exactly the same. After all this, Gilgamesh still wanted his immortality so Utnapishtim decided to test him by giving him two tests. Gilgamesh fails both of this tests and as a result he cannot earn his eternity. I learned a lot from this tablet about destiny. Destiny is already defined and everything happens for a reason. If life wasn’t like this, maybe it would be really boring……!!!
