Entry 1
Today was a very good day. The war had finally ended. So many lives lost. Another very weird thing happened today. 3 strange women approached my friend banquo and me and told me a prophecy. I would be king one day. Those 3 ladies must be drunk or something because there is no one I could become king. I have always thought being king would be cool but no chance I can be. I guess we will just have to see what happens and pray for the best.
Entry 2
The strangest thing ever happened today. Those 3 confusing woman’s prophecy came true, well at least part of it. The king, Duncan summoned me today and named me the duke of Cumberland. Am I going insane or is this actually happening. Were those ladies real or was it all a dream. Most importantly, am I still in this dream? If the prophecy is right how do I become king? Maybe I should ask my wife, she will tell me what to do. Hopefully she will believe me or else she may put me somewhere for crazy people or worse leave me because she thinks I am insane. I guess only time will tell.
Entry 3
Tonight is the night. Tonight Duncan dies. I am so nervous about this. I have murdered before but never a king. What if I get caught, what if he wakes and kills me or what if I confess because I cant live with myself after and I am put to death. Why must this be the only way to become king? I could wait until the king dies but I may be dead myself. No! I must not talk my way out of it. What must be done will be done and Duncan will not see the light of tomorrow.
Entry 4
The great King is dead and I arise as the new king. With the help of my wife, I have killed the king. Macbeth shall rule forever. But wait. The 3 witches said Banquo would be the father of many kings. Does this mean I must destroy my best friend in order to remain ruler of this land? Why must life give us such hard decisions to deal with? Why can’t it just all be laid out with no tough decisions at all. I guess we will just have to see what will happen over the next days, months or even years
Keep up the creative writing. I like how you are evolving. You are definitely showing an understanding of the changes your character is going through.
