How long should someone grieve after a loved one death? I believe it would depend on who you are. Everybody is different, so I personally do not put a time limit on how long someone should grieve after a loved ones death. Especially when you realize the relationship they had between another.

If my father died I wouldn’t expect her to remarry. If she did plan on remarrying I would say she should wait till she was ready for it. I feel that because it is her life, and not mine, she should remarry if she is wants to and is doing it for good reasons. But yes, I would be upset if she got remarried within six months of his death because that would, in a way, show me that she didn’t really love or care about dad as much as she said.

I think that the ghost of King Hamlet is benevolent. I don’t think it wants to do any harm to Hamlet; just giving him advice or possibly warn Hamlet about something important or bad is going to happen in the future.

I think the ghost will tell Hamlet about who murdered his father and how the murdered it. I think the ghost will tell Hamlet to avenge him and get revenge on the killer, who is probably the new king, Claudius. The ghost could possibly tell Hamlet how exactly he should do away with Claudius, or whoever the murderer is. Finally the ghost might shed some light on what the afterlife is like.

I believe that meeting the ghost will set in motion many important events that need to happen in the play. I think that the ghost incites one of the major conflicts that happen in “Hamlet”, conflicts between Hamlet and himself and Hamlet and his uncle Claudius. The ghost in my mind is necessary for the progression of the story.

Just some advise..

There are some things I would like to say to the younger girls out there about dating. I would give the advice of: watch out, guys can be very manipulative. You also need to make sure you’re going with your instinct at all times because your gut feeling is probably true. Now matter how hard it is just know your morals, values, limits, and stay true to yourself. Yes I would have to say that is a lot easier said than done, but you will be happier in the long run. Take that from a girl that has been there, and I’m sure a lot of people would have that same advise, just from experience. You will have your heart broken and you will break hearts so remember that also. No worries though because you will get over it and find someone that will treat you right, love you, and be true to you. I’m not saying that will be easy though, it will be a pretty hard road sometimes, but just stick in there. Just stay strong, keep your chin up, and don’t let any boy bring you down. You need to make sure your never alone with another boy because that leads to nothing but trouble. When a boy and a girl are alone together they usually come up with some trouble. Last thing is that you will want to beat up some losers, but that’s normal so just remember you will find someone that treats you right!

Advice

If I had a little sister, about to start dating I would give her advice on what I have done and what I have gone through. I have done many things with the dating scene and I have learned. I do not have any little sisters because I am the youngest and I got all of the advice. Having to deal with older brothers, I could not really date all that much. In my experience, I would tell a younger girl friend or younger sister to treat them how you would want to be treated.

If you learn to love, then treat them as if you do. Do not take them for granted, and if something was to go wrong, do not cry all of your tears on a boy. Things will always go wrong and things are always going to happen. Boys are not everything. You need to learn to love yourself before you can fully love somebody else. Do not be so quick to jump into a man’s bed and sleep with him. Be who you are and if he loves you for that then he should not want you to jump into his bed. Not every man is the same; there are some actually are good.

I think that I got a lot of good advice on things, and if I could, I would go back and listen to it a little better.

Issues

Everyone has got their own set of issues. Think honestly. How many issues do you really have? You may be able to run away from one or two issues but not all of them. Me I tried, and I ended up in the system. With me my past happens to sneak up and haunts me. Like with my drinking problem, it has given me a lot of bad memories. Was it fun, and did I enjoy it? Yes for the most part I did, but it comes to a point. Now I can’t listen to others talking about it or even talk about it myself without thinking “how stupid were you?” I regret my past of substance abuse.

Another haunt of mine is abuse of all sorts. My past is full of abuse I personally have been abused since the age of two or three every type of abuse (emotional, physical, sexually and mentally) from family, supposed friends, teachers, and enemies. I personally have done a ton of abuse to others as well. Believe it or not I was a school bully back in 5th and 6th grade. I have done most of the things that has happened to me and then some. My past is a very scary thing for me. If you want to know more about my past then go to my name “James” and go to the post “My problems”

Jealousy

So I was given the topic of jealousy to write about. Not just any kind of jealousy but the jealousy of boyfriend and girlfriend kind of jealousy. I think that this type of jealousy happens because the boy and girl are in love for that moment in time. I believe that trust is the main key point here because in any relationship you need trust. Jealousy comes into play when that trust is not there, and when you don’t trust the person you supposedly love then is it really love? I think not. With me I have never really been in a boyfriend girlfriend relationship so I don’t really know what love feels like. I try really hard not to be jealous of anyone for any reason because it just turns out bad in the end. When I think I love somebody it turns out to be a mind trick, and so I’m in a struggle a lot because I wonder is it really love or is it just another mind trick that’s being played on me?

Young Advice

If I had to give a little girl some advice on dating I would have to think for a little bit before I told her my opinion. It all depends on things like if she has dated before this, who the guy is, what both of their morals are, and if they have had good role models in their lives. The best advice I could give them is to not make love outside of being married. Also not to do it with someone you don’t know well enough that you can be absolutely positive that that person would never even think of forming a thought about hurting you. You have to be completely sure of a person before committing to them in such a way that they could possibly leave you as soon as they have had their fun and pleasure.

I would also explain to them about temptation and sin. Then I would give them examples of how they could fall into temptation or sin. If they were going off to college, I would explain to them that the reason they are going to college is to learn. So he needs to keep his head on straight and be studying at night.
