have you ever asked yourself, "who am i"; or "i don't ask for being born into this world, so why am i still here"? there are some questions that we try to answer who know how many times throughout our life and cannot do it.

if you've asked yourself those type of questions at least once, you should know the fact that you question your existence is not weird at all. generation after generation, humans ask themselves those unanswerable questions.

existentialism is a form of philosophical inquiry that explores the problem of human existance and centers on the lived experience of thinking, feeling, acting individual. that's a thing.

the individual's starting point has been called "the existential angst", a sense of dread, disorientation, confusion, or anxiety in the face of an apparently meaningless or absurd world (robert. 1974:1-2)

in the play, hamlet is pessimistic. he wants to put an end to himself. he is disappointed in life; however, at the same time, he is afraid of death.

he describes his life experience only with pain ("the slings and arrow, the thousand natural shocks, the sea of troubles, the heart-ache") and does not want to suffer anymore, but his thoughts about death are so gloomy.

hamlet is insecure and depressed. despite all disappointments in life, he cannot choose death. he is afraid of the uncertainty since death is a mystery.

if hamlet chooses death, his sufferings will disappear. he won't have to think about revenge. but he cannot take a decision and end his life. dead or alive, this is the most difficult question and hamlet is not ready for it.

the main problem of hamlet's life becomes expressed with six words: "to be, or not to be" (III.1.57). simple, but impactful, that's what i always say about this sentence.

hamlet the play makes us feel empathy for the titled character, because we feel what he feels. he hesitates, we know how it feels. he over thinks, and so do we. he cannot make a clear decision, we all in his shoes once.

if you think about it, hamlet doesn't use the personal pronounce "I" in his "to be, or not to be" speech. there's a reason for it.

hamlet's detachment might exist because, having struggled with his personal and particular situation in his earlier soliloquies, he is now able to take a step back to reflect upon that situation in a more abstract way

not only hamlet or his generation, but also us in the 21st-century still have to suffer because of depression and anxiety. that's why to be or not to be music video is always too painful to watch. the pain, we can feel it.

in the music video, we see them in both old and modern day outfit. you can clearly see the connection between different times. even though they wake up in another era, they still have to suffer.

at the end of the day, they choose to live. every generation know how depressed it is when even breathing is hard enough. all of us try to survive, but not all of us can make it. they keep fighting, and that speaks a lot.

life is cruel, but it also is beautiful. the monarchs make their decision: to live the way they want.

to all of you who have not given up fighting, you have worked hard. thank you for being born.
