I always believed in destiny. If something was meant to happen, it will happen no matter what you do! We cannot change our destiny, but we can choose better choices along the path. Macbeth's destiny was to believe the prophecies made by the witches. Macbeth becomes the King of Scotland by doing evil deeds. First, Duncan must be murdered or be sent away. Macbeth decided to kill Duncan and this scared Duncan's sons away. This ensured the crown will be belong to Macbeth. Next, it was destined that Banquo would be murdered and his son will escape during the attack. Then, it was destined that Macbeth would rush into killing Macduff's family while he was away. This led to the death of Macbeth, killed by revenge. It was destined that Macbeth would be consumed by his given power and overconfidence, which led to his death.


Lady Macbeth was more realistic and straightforward than Macbeth. Macbeth only had thoughts of becoming the King of Scotland by murdering the king. Lady Macbeth had the intentions and the plan to enlighten Macbeth to do the dirty work for her. I think Lady Macbeth wanted Macbeth to become the king, so she could have power as well. Lady Macbeth was way smarter than Macbeth, she believed in herself and her manipulation skills. While Macbeth believed in the words of others instead of his own inner goddess. Macbeth also had a weakness of proving himself to others. Macbeth let Lady Macbeth bring out the inner evil of him by calling him a coward. The most uneasy setting in Macbeth was the scene where Macbeth sent murderers to murder Macduff's innocent family. Personally, I could not stand any man that has no love for a woman. I also felt uneasy when Macbeth kept mentioning 'one born of woman'. Macbeth was given birth by his mother too! This made Macbeth sounded like he discriminate woman and his mother.

If I could make any changes to the play, I would not let the ending be a tragedy. I believe everyone is born with a good heart and this can be reverse back to its status quo. I would let the ending be; Macbeth realized all his evil deeds after the death of his wife and decided to change for good. Macbeth went to Macduff and confessed his crimes. Macduff forgave Macbeth for his honesty and bravery. Macbeth was imprisoned for the life time and Macduff found the evil witches to kill all of them. Ever since then, there were no generals or nobleman tried to kill the King of Scotland to steal his title. Everyone lived happily ever after!
