Diary Entries for Juliet
Dear Diary,
My time has come, I knew it would come soon, I am soon to be married.
I don't know what to do or what to think. When I was told the news my
life flashed before my eyes, I saw myself in a loveless marriage,
sitting at home in old clothes, slaving over a hot stove all day and
looking after the children, what kind of a future is that?
Getting married is an honour, because it shows you are wanted and the
older you are the less likely you are to get married and your parents
will have to look after you. I don't want to disappoint my parents,
but I truly feel marriage, at this stage in my life, is not what I
want.
I am not ready to make such a commitment. The man I am meant to marry
I'm to meet at this party my father is throwing. I am supposed to like
him, what happens if I don't? Even if I like him, I certainly don't
want to marry him.
My father, I think, will give me some say in the matter, after all it
is my life and he is meant to love and respect me. My nanny is more
like my mother, my mother and father weren't around much when I was
growing up and I feel a really strong bond between the nanny and I and
she will support me whatever I choose, if I get to choose.
This party is going to be the worst yet, I'm not even bothered about
what I'm going to wear. Also I can't enjoy myself because I know soon
I could marry, possibly to someone who is not right for me.
Come to think of it I know nothing about this man, how is the marriage
supposed to last anyway? HELP! I can hear my mother calling, got to
go.
Juliet
Dear Diary,
Romeo, Romeo, I am in love with Romeo, not with the man my dad picked,
Paris.
Albert Camus points out that for some people, it is easier for them to take their own life, than it is to continue living an empty one. This is the case for the star-crossed lovers, Romeo, and Juliet, in William Shakespeare’s play, Romeo and Juliet. Although there were multiple contributing factors to the suicides of Romeo and Juliet, Friar Laurence is directly responsible for their deaths. He is responsible because he trusted someone other than himself to deliver the letter to Romeo, he gave Juliet the potion, and left when Romeo and Juliet were in danger at the tomb.
The play Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare, the nurse is Juliet’s lower-class nurse. She is a loquacious, insolent trusting but yet dishonest character in the play. The only character that Juliet trusts and usually is seen cracking dirty jokes
Teenagers that are in love tend to be impulsive and bad at making decisions. In the play Romeo and Juliet, by William Shakespeare, two star-crossed lovers from families that don’t get along have to go against their parents, so they can be together. The language that Shakespeare uses depicts the characters and shows that they are impulsive, which affects the outcome of the play.
Many people think that society has changed so much over the years. That the way that children act, has taken a turn for the worst, but in reality children are learning from their ancestors. Children are lying to their parents, they are sneaking out at night to be with a boy that is “the one”, children are going back into the age of Shakespeare. In the play “Romeo and Juliet” which was written by William Shakespeare in 1597, there are two teenagers, Romeo and Juliet, who fall in love with each other. These two teenagers try to do everything that they can to live the rest of their lives together, except their families despise each other, so there is no way that they can live the rest of their lives together. So, many people believe that the way that our children are growing up today is taking away the fun parts of their childhood. However in this play Juliet did many of the things that teenagers are trying to do now. Children and sometimes adults now need to realize how your actions not only affect you but also the people around you, you also need to think about the consequences of the actions you make. At first Juliet falls in love at first sight with Romeo, then she takes a potion, which causes her family to think she is dead, and then how Friar Lawrence helps Juliet with the scheming, which shows how adults have to think about others as well.
William Shakespeare’s “Romeo & Juliet,” is arguably the most widely known tragic love story of all time. Although it has been the subject of debate and controversy, it has inspired many love stories in recent times. One of the most controversial details of the play, are the relationships that Friar Lawrence and Nurse, have with Romeo and Juliet. Many argue that they were not being responsible with their actions regarding Romeo and Juliet’s marriage. Others say that their actions were justified, because the two teens trusted them. Nurse and Friar Lawrence did not do the “right thing” in this situation, and contributed to the events which eventually led to the death of Romeo and Juliet.

Many girls of different ages fantasize about the perfect wedding, perfect husband, a gorgeous dress, and the happiness to come after the wedding. At one point I was just like these girls. I saw marriage as a paradise that everybody should experience. Around tenth- grade, my rose tinted glasses were removed and I witnessed just how bad a marriage could get to the point of divorce. The divorce my parents went through, changed my entire view on monogamy. I now see marriage in a more realistic point of view and that it is not an easy journey as I once had thought it was.
Also, I'd like to say that the bride looks absolutely stunning today, as for the groom he just looks stunned. I am on a strict time limit from the bride, so the more you laugh at my jokes, the quicker my speech will be.

Marriage is one of the most important goal in people life, create a family, have kids, live together ever after. Find the right person isn 't easy, we can spend most of our life looking for our soulmate, Dreaming with a fairy tale with the “one” and get married.
The debate on whether to get married or stay single has been raging for a long while, with both sides of the coin having their own pros and cons regarding the matter. Many proponents of either marriage or single life have strong individual convictions, and it is difficult to reach a definitive objective conclusion. Is the married individual happier than his/her single counterpart, or is getting married just a comfort seeking ritual that people believe they have to fulfill at some point in their lives? It is necessary to dissect this issue in the light of four factors: health and other medical factors, the economic and finance front, mental and emotional wellbeing and lastly, the social factor.
There is no marriage that is impeccable; but when you fulfill the commitment of spending the rest of your life with someone “for better and for worse,” marriage is the most rewarding manifestation of love in the world. Although, some marriages, despite the promise of “till death do us part” simply just don’t work. For marriages that turned immensely sour, divorce might be the only resort. However, if you don’t want to see your children in the wrong direction, and if you don’t want to suffer despondency, and economic burden, you better think twice before getting a divorce. Don’t quit easily – try to save your marriage, especially if it’s worth fighting for.
