Earlier today I was talking to my husband and he started to doubt again, continuously telling me he couldn't go through with the plan. He wanted to get me to understand how good and noble Duncan is and it frustrates me. I understand that Duncan is good and everything but at this point, that doesn't really matter to me. I didn't want sympathy to get in the way of my evil scheme to make Macbeth receive the throne. I started getting so angry because he didn't want to kill Duncan, like suck it up and just do it! THEN started attacking his manhood because as we girls all know, that's what bothers a man the most. He told me "I dare do all that may become a man; who dares do more is none." (line 47) and again, I got mad. He believes that by being loyal to the King is what a real man would do. But a man who has the nerve to kill his own King isn't a man. I don't see it that way. He'd be a man if he stops being so nice and gets what he wants. I mean he's going to have it either way; I just want him to have it sooner. I believe my word has a huge effect on him and so I have convinced him of what I wanted and that's what he will do. I need him to man up and do what's going to empower us. I told him the plan and it made him feel more secure about everything and now he's down to kill Duncan so I'm pretty excited about it. The plan is perfect, it's going to work. And when everyone finds out that he died we'll be grieving and acting as if we're heartbroken when in reality it was us all along.Â
