What's happened? Hamlet, who has set about to feign mental illness, is actually just acting on his own very genuine feelings. Hamlet cares very much about Ophelia.

goal or self satisfaction. In reading The American Way of Families, it occured
to me that the struggle for pleasing one's own self existed even in the family.
I don't think that after reading this piece that anyone can deny the
existence of this urge in themselves. The urge exists in every form. No matter

Jobs Are Not For Everyone
Number of words: 952 | Number of pages: 4.... time, I remember being constantly pulled aside and being told that I wasn’t bagging the groceries properly. The strange part was that when my boss would tell me these things he would always take me to isle seven to yell and scream at me. Why couldn’t he take me into his office where it would be private?
