DISCUSSIONS THAT I BELIEVE WOULD PLEASE THE BARD

• As always, I thoroughly enjoyed this morning’s zoom Shakespeare class, which, though lasting for close to two hours, passes more quickly than I can believe.
• Our discussions are intelligent, timely and often, passionate in nature, which I believe would please The Bard, who, if you ask me, had meant to provoke these reactions with his choices of subject matter as well as the traits with which he personified his characters.
• And no matter the play, Shakespeare’s themes consistently relate to the interplay that never fails to juxtapose both sides of human nature each time his main characters confront each other as well as their own inner conflicts.
• Unlike Hollywood endings ( and in the absence of spoilers), Shakespeare’s original audiences did not know if the play they were watching would end with tragic consequences or with ‘all’s well that ends well’.
• And with that said, it’s likely that I’ll voice the train of thought, penned above, during next week’s discussion.😊
• As for now (and being that Will and I are still seriously quarantining), I’ll return to the novel that I’m reading, because it’s so brainless as to relax my mind as completely as this morning’s discussion stimulated my voice to participate wholeheartedly intermittently during today’s rousing discussion, which actually encompassed the fear that I’d repressed, over most of my life.
• And the reason that that fear remains unrevealed within current posts is based in the fact that my intuition has not yet observed my conscious mind as feeling so calm as to naturally release the words with which to clearly express my emotional reaction to the specific subject matter of Shakespeare’s play, Measure for Measure.
• If you feel need to know more concerning this undisclosed fear, right away, google the synopsis of this play, which was considered highly controversial during Shakespeare’s day.
