Macbeth

This week, my reflection is going to be about Macbeth. So basically Macbeth he was the Lord of Glamis, and once he came back from a battle in Norway, he met three witches along the way and they tell him that he will be king in the future. Now, I am not going to explain the whole story because everybody knows about it. My reflection on Macbeth is that he used to be a very kind, caring gentleman. If it weren't for the three witches, I believe he would've still been king sooner or later. I believe what changed him was that he knew that he was going to be king in the future. Temptation and greed had taken over him. It had turned him into a completely different person, he had lost his innocence. There is this quote by Elbert Hubbard "Men are not punished for their sins, but by them. " This, I believe clearly states this story. Whatever Macbeth has done to people, he will get it back. I feel like Shakspeare is trying to tell us something, I believe he's trying to tell us how to keep us sane and our principles and not let our selfish desire take over us.
