In Macbeth, whether you should interfere with fate is a huge theme in the book. When Macbeth gets his first prophecy from the witches about being king, he questions whether he should interfere with fate and kill Duncan or just let it happen. Lady Macbeth urges Macbeth to just go ahead and interfere with fate and take matters into his own hands. However, we see this is a huge mistake. One murder turns into another, and another, and another. Macbeth and Lady Macbeth can not stop murdering people once they kill Duncan. They kill one person and then find another that they have to kill. The murder drives both of them crazy and eventually kills them.
This story shows how you should just let your fate happen and not try to take matters into you own hands. If Macbeth would have just let his fate happen, he would have never killed all of those people and he would not have been killed. Macbeth thought that the deal would be done after they killed Duncan, but it ended up that he had to continue to kill more and more people. It was an endless trail.

Dear Chanler,
ReplyDeleteSuper cool post! I really liked the connection you made about how the first prophesy really started it all and eventually led to their deaths. Great Post!
