It is not easy to live a life full of lies and deceit. The loss of my father saddens me. My mother, Gertrude, marrying my uncle, Claudias. My uncle is now the King of Denmark. My ruthless mother married that fiend in just under a month before the demise of my father. It angers me how that foolish woman went for such a man. Could she not have waited and mourn? She dares to tell me to forget my father and move on. I trusted Claudius, respected him, and even decided not to go to Wittenberg, until I witnessed the ghost of King Hamlet. I was frightened, scared, were these just illusions? Had I completely gone insane? The ghost revealed to me that the death of King Hamlet was no accident, but a murder committed by Claudias. The anger inside me was raging, my heart was burning, how that man lured my mother with sweet words, murdered my father and became the King of Denmark. I don't even trust my mother anymore, is she with Claudius or I? I decided to play an act as a mad man, to not oppose threat to Claudias and get my revenge at the right time. I ask you, my readers, What would you do in my situation? How should I confront Claudius? Is it right to trust the ghost?
