Hamlet was one of my favorite things we did so far this year. I learned a lot and was always interested. One major lesson I took away was that we are all equal in death. Its deeper than just saying we all day. To me Hamlet was saying that money and stereotypes are overrated and mean nothing in the long run. We are all bound to die and at the end your money and fame will mean nothing. It was just one of many major lessons in the play that stood out to me.
My favorite quote in Hamlet is ” To be or not to be, that is the question. Whether tis nobler to suffer the torments that fortune slings your way, or to take arms against those afflictions, and by opposing them, end them forever” -Hamlet. This quote relates to today because it explains the everyday struggles that people face who are in the same situation. We all have a choice to continue fighting and living or letting go and dying. Hamlet clearly portrays those feelings and that battle.
The song I chose is Summer depression by Girl in Red. https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=summer+depression+girl+in+red This song Is all about being sad anf fighting the rough times which is exactly what Hamlet is doing the entire play.
