Macbeth Journal Entry No.3

Dear Journal,

   I had never realised the importance of becoming a soldier for war. All my father wanted me to do was to become a soldier one day, totally ignorant towards my feelings. I could have become a great artist, mathematician, philosopher, but no. I was born into a family of honour and dignity. My bloodlines made me who I am today. I now realise how amazing the feeling to become a respected soldier is. Today, the King himself thanked Banquo and I for serving our country. We are no longer little minions in the army; instead we are respected as noble knights who fight for the crown. My hard work and all my sacrifices finally paid off. All of this sudden glory that has been given to me surely has a price waiting for me to pay. I do not know what I must do, but for now I will continue to enjoy the joy that has been placed at my doorstep. I cannot see my wife but I am writing to her, telling her all about my successes. From becoming a respected Knight to the future King, she disserves to know every aspect for it is not only my happiness to come, but her's too.

-Macbeth

EQ: What does it mean to be human? (Macbeth feels joy from all compliments, and greed for more)
