HAMLET ESSAY

Hamlet. Hamlet as a character is a troubled teen that just wants to be happy but has the extreme burdon of his father's killer and how he is going to revenge him because he is so engulfed with greif it's eating him to depression and madness. Hamlet the play, itself is hard to read, though after all it was a different time back in Shakespear's time. Though it's interesting the lesson Shakespear is trying to teach the audience, it's very peculiar but effective.
Hamlet goes back and forth with whether or not he wants to end his own life or not, but he gets so obsessed with killing his uncle that he ends up killing himself. getting fixated with revenge just made Hamlet more depressed and mad, instead of letting it go and finding his own self peace and remember his faather as a great man and king.  Hamlet’s grief effects everyone around him whether he knows it or not and it twists the plot with devastation, like for example, Ophelia, she went mad and killed herself because Hamlet ‘accidentally’ killed her father.
Relating back to the soliloquy, I think that everyone can relate to it, whether you admit or not, but there has or will be that one moment in your life where you feel alone and that it’s just going to get worse. And that’s what Hamlet is feeling, that it can’t possibly get any better, but it does. Maybe not in Hamlet’s situation because he chose the wrong way to handle the situation, but relating to Hamlet in some ways can be easy in others its hard but I can relate in some ways like grief.
