"There’s a special providence in the fall of a sparrow. If it be now, ’tis not to come. If it be not to come, it will be now. If it be not now, yet it will come—the readiness is all." (Act.5 Sc.2 Ln.233-237)
- As to much surprise, I am finally starting to figure out what my purpose is and what I must do. Ophelia is gone now, everyone now knows that what I felt for her was all sincere, it is too late to keep hiding beneath the shadows! I cannot decline Laertes' request no matter how much my instincts tell me that it isn't a good idea. For no man can escape his fate, God has every ones lives planned out already for them, now I make whatever life I have left honorable. For the first time since the death of my father, I feel the need to stand up against Claudius. I guess you can infer that I am discovering a sense of identity and gaining the courage to overcome my contemplations. Even if it means death for me, I know that i won't die in vain for this is all due to the love I have for my father.
