A Midsummer Nightmare Dream

Who knows I would learned about William Shakespeare instead of majoring in Actuarial Science?

His great work on A Midsummer Night’s Dream is mostly imitated from Ovid’s Metamorphoses but it was not a simple and direct imitation yet full of modifications based on the imitations. Never heard those? Me too. Just knew it in less than a week because of the assignment for a Gen Ed course.

It was a crucial time for me to understand the essays on Shakespeare. No, it is not the original work from Shakespeare. It was just an essay about Shakespeare’s early life and his work on A Midsummer Night’s Dream. I just could not imagine how if I were to read the original work of Shakespeare. That would be the worst nightmare in my life.

Half an hour passed by after I printed out the paper on Shakespeare and Ovid, and I felt so impressed for those who spend their whole lives on this oldies, classical, and literature thingy. How their brain function to understand all those stuff. Unlike me who could never fully understand them (I just got approximately 1% from all I read).

How heterogeneous human are. How great God is. Yet nobody can be perfect to be good at all fields because we do have our own limitation. Thus, we are made different to one another to make the world full of harmony as we are completing each other.

Am stopping here.
