William Shakespeare

To be or not to be ?

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? 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 is nothing either good or bad but thinking makes it so. Thus it is that we must choose between the two and ponder our decision. On the one hand, to be is to be alive, and to live is to experience joy and sorrow, love and loss, and all the other emotions that make life worth living. On the other hand, not to be is to be free from all the pains of life, free from the worries and anxieties that come with it. Is it better to live a life of joy and sorrow, or is it better to remain in a state of not being? That is the question. I say, why not both? Why not enjoy the highs and lows of life and also have the peace of not being? After all, what good is life without a bit of fun? So, to be or not to be? That is the question. Whatever we choose, may it bring us joy and peace.
