In the end of Macbeth's reign, Macduff holds the head of the forbidden king high, and Malcolm proceeds to rejoice and decides to celebrate. The thing that stuck to me was that there was a slight unsettling mood to it, as if seeing the death of a person was a happy occasion, i could understand why, sure enough, but the fact that we as an audience know he only did what he was told and ended up costing him his life just scares me a little. Morality-wise, of course. But he did some pretty unforgivable things for that time. He killed a king, a man that was seen as God's second in command, the one all people could never f#%$ with. Its like flipping off the Pope in front of all his disciples. I think the most important thing that Macbeth did that led to his death was the fact that he disturbed the natural order of things, causing mass hysteria and panic.

There is a whole book i can write about the things I've done in the past that would make me feel guilty enough to apologize for a lifetime. But the mistakes we make are something we all have to live with, there's no escaping it, even though I wish I could.
