Macbeth

 

            Living in Detroit was a major part of my life that lasted until the end of my seventh grade year. A part of my life that I thought would never end. I was happy, content and popular. I used to think that the city was the best place to live. Well, now I realize that, that is a matter of one's opinion; my opinion changed dramatically, when I moved to Shelby Township. I moved to a place that was new to me, it left me in a state that made me feel like I didn't know where I belonged, I felt like an outsider, and honestly I didn't like that. When I came to this new place I didn't fit in. I wasn't one of the people in the in-crowd; this caused me to go in to a state of isolation, where for awhile I never talked to anyone or even acknowledged that any one else even existed. That was such a horrible thing that finally, one day I just got over it, and now I live my life day-by-day without looking back, and without any regrets.
             Isolation is more that just a state that somebody goes through. I think that this isolation that people experience put them in a realm of loneliness that no one else can fathom. Isolation comes in stages. This theory is especially evident in one of Shakespeare's most famous playwright Macbeth. In the Shakespearean play Macbeth the main character, Macbeth has a path of destruction that causes" his isolation.
             Many things forced Macbeth into his state of isolation, such as his ambition, his uncanny belief in the supernatural and his over exuberant wife. From the beginning Macbeth was a bit taken by the prophecies that were set forth by the "Three Witches.".
             First Witch. All hail, Macbeth! Hail to thee, Thane of Glamis!.
             Second Witch. All hail, Macbeth! Hail to thee, Thane of Cawdor!.
             Third Witch. All hail, Macbeth! Hail to thee, that shalt be King hereafter!.
             (Shakespeare, William. Macbeth Pg.333 Lines 48-50).
             These prophecies played a big role in contributing to Macbeth's mental conditions.
