My rant about life referencing Macbeth

from Mattacritic Podcast · host Matthew Hemenway

You want to go to this link watch the short.Welcome to the Mattacritic. This is Matthew Hemenway. As was said in Macbeth, “Life is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound of fury.” I can understand where Macbeth is coming from. It feels like life has a bunch of idiots looking to hurt people and do what they want. They want to hurt you and me and not care about the damage they do to you and me. People like Donald Trump and Elon Musk do not care about you and me. They want to get richer, while they hurt the rest of us. What they are doing is so stupid, and so many things, I cannot list them out here.I read Macbeth in high school and watch the 1971 film that came out as part of my high school English class. Of course, He and Lady Macbeth did everything they could to get power and do everything they could to keep it. They killed Duncan who was Macbeth’s cousin to get what they wanted. If you want me to do a full review and analysis of the play, there are three movie versions that I will name here. There is the apple version. There is movie that is on Amazon Prime. The 197l film is also on Amazon prime. Please consider watching those movies. Please let me know in the comment section below, which one would you like me to review. If you want to review all those movies, please let me know. Thank you.I will end the short with this, where is the good? It feels like there is so much evil out there that it is drowning out the good. I wonder, what the f**k is going on? I know I normally do not swear, but I feel that it important and appropriate here. Where is God and why does it feel like God has abandoned us? Yes, that is exactly how the psalmists felt. I will end it with this. I know there is good, as I have my cats. My cats make me feel loved. I also know that I have my friends and family and that helps. If a person has those, it is more than enough. At times I felt like I did not deserve to be loved or worthy of it. My accident made me feel like that. If I did not have a good friend who has there for me, I would have done something horrible to myself. I thank her for that. Do not do what I did and isolate yourself. At times I want to live in the wilderness, but that is not a terrific way to live life. We all need people in our lives.
