What makes an individual powerful?
Well, I believe that leadership and going for what you want makes someone powerful. Like, I wanted Macbeth to kill Duncan because that's what I wanted. I wanted him dead and I wanted power. And I kept going for that and striving for the power, and guess what? I got it. If someone just gives up, then they aren't going to become powerful, and if they don't fight for what they want, there voice won't be heard, and they will never be powerful.
Luckily, Macbeth has me to help him. Without me he would just be a loser in the crowd, without any power. Even though he needed someone to start him off in going for what he truely wants, he now does it on his own and is becoming a leader, like me.
I feel bad for the people who don't like going after what they want, and the people who aren't leaders, because then they just stink and aren't powerful, and aren't going to get anywhere in life. Yeah, King Duncan was powerful but only because he was king, but I don't think he was powerful as an individual. He was too nice and people loved him, when you are truely powerful people should be your enemy, not your friend, people should fear you, not love you. King Duncan was never powerful, he was just considered "the king". And that's why I hated him.
In conclusion, I believe that the only way a single person can be powerful is if they're a true leader, and they fight for what they want. I'm a powerful person, and my husband is too, which makes us even better people.
Dear Lady Macbeth,
ReplyDeleteWho was it that said "it's better to be feared than loved"? Was it Machiavelli? I think so. The two of you would have gotten along so well. Yes, it is true that being a leader can be a lonely thing and can result in enemies. I think you knew that going into the murder of Duncan, but what happened to you. I had such high hopes that you might be one of the few women to become a ruler during the 11th century. You could have done such a great job. What happened to you? How did you become so weak? I'm so disappointed...
Dear Lady Macbeth,
ReplyDeleteI completly agree with the way you think. You are pretty smart. I also believe going for what you want really does make you powerful. I really like the idea that you manipulated your husband into killing the king so you could have power. That is a true leader, geting someoneto help you to get what you want. You remind me of myself you go for something and dont stop until you get it. Maybe we can hang out sometime and talk, i feel we would have alot in common and have a good talk. I also like the idea of you have to be a leader to be powerful. Like you said you were a leader and helped your husband kill so you could get more power for yourself! Genuis. I aslo feel bad for people who don't go after what they want. Anyway let me know if you ever want to hang out and maybe go out for a couple killings.
Lady Macbeth.
ReplyDeleteI agree with what you are saying. If it wasnt for me and my sisters, Macbeth wouldnt even have had the idea to kill duncan. That sent him out fo control and he became bloodthirsty, and out of control
