- I've read this many times since its been assigned to us and i still don't understand it. This is MY Personal interpretation, so yeah it won't be perfect.
Original :
To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether 'tis Nobler in the mind to suffer
The Slings and Arrows of outrageous Fortune,
Or to take Arms against a Sea of troubles,
And by opposing end them: to die, to sleep
No more; and by a sleep, to say we end
The Heart-ache, and the thousand Natural shocks
That Flesh is heir to? 'Tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wished. To die, to sleep,
To sleep, perchance to Dream; Aye, there's the rub,
For in that sleep of death, what dreams may come,
When we have shuffled off this mortal coil,
Must give us pause. There's the respect
That makes Calamity of so long life:
For who would bear the Whips and Scorns of time,
The Oppressor's wrong, the proud man's Contumely,
The pangs of despised Love, the Law’s delay,
The insolence of Office, and the Spurns
That patient merit of the unworthy takes,
When he himself might his Quietus make
With a bare Bodkin? Who would Fardels bear,
To grunt and sweat under a weary life,
But that the dread of something after death,
The undiscovered Country, from whose bourn
No Traveller returns, Puzzles the will,
And makes us rather bear those ills we have,
Than fly to others that we know not of.
Thus Conscience does make Cowards of us all,
And thus the Native hue of Resolution
Is sicklied o'er, with the pale cast of Thought,
And enterprises of great pitch and moment,
With this regard their Currents turn awry,
And lose the name of Action. Soft you now,
The fair Ophelia? Nymph, in thy Orisons
Be all my sins remembered.
.
Translation :
Should i act or should i not act?
Is it better to live through
the troubles of misery,
or to stand against this devastating force,
do i Die to end the pain; to imagine it no longer
To end the pain that is to come that we will all suffer?
Many of us want to live without these troubles.
To imagine or to think; but thinking is not acting, and what regrets may we have
by those of us who refuse to act,
i have to recognize. To overcome great obstacles,
and earn the respect of the people around me.
Not all people choose to act;
To give in to the orders of the dictator
Not take risks and live a sad life,
and then end their own misery.
what is better,
a miserable existence,
or challenges that you take and can not change.
These are decisions that most if not all people fear,
which makes me think more about my decision;
to keep silent and ignore my troubles
or to face them, unlike most.
b) I would act in a way that would benefit me and those closest to me, which would be to just go with my conscience. I would want to better myself and the situation.
c) Like i said I would choose to better and change myself. Lately, I've just been stressing too much about the future, which is something that i have to prepare myself for. In this case i have to make the choices that are best for me and not consider people around me as much; its my future and if the outcome is good or bad , I'll have to deal with it not them so I must go with what is best for me.
