Hamlet has had a desire to end the life of his horrible uncle since day one. This is completely understandable, he has every right to feel the way he does. His father was taken from him and he knows exactly why. What I admire is how smart and tactical Ham,let is being with the situation. Instead of rushing in and lunging a knife into Claudius. He is using his head, playing it smart, my type of guy. If i was ever in that situation, i probably would have given myself away and killed him right then and there. But Hamlet could be some sort of inspiration to think before you act. Its ironic how they both turn to God for the most unusual request. Claudius asking for forgiveness even though he doesn't mean it and Hamlet asking what is the best way to kill his uncle. I still agree that Hamlet has every right to do what he is doing and should continue to do so.

To My Dear Ophelia
They say people come and go, and there is always something about them you miss once their gone. Well I realized what it was. You were a woman who cared for a man who made you feel like nothing. Hamlet would push you away, then pull you close and what were you to do? You loved the man and here we are, not at your respectable funeral, but just here because they believe you don't "deserve" a respectable funeral.
They made you seem like a desperate woman who lost it and killed herself. They believe that you don't deserve a respectable funeral when you tried to stay as sane as possible. You had no choice but to feel as if you were the cause of everything. As if everything was your fault but if only you knew. Oh my dear Ophelia, I would have been way better than Hamlet.
