====Each individual is unique in his personality and appearance. However, none of the uniqueness makes perfect. Maybe some people may think they are perfect in compare with others. There must be something that we have done wrongly - falling into traps of sins. Consider Shakespeare's play //Macbeth//, we can see how a person relationship with himself changes because of these traps.====

====Macbeth as a general in Duncan's army puts lots of hard work to complete his task. He obeys his king for his gentleness and honesty. He believes rewards should be given for his effort. Due to the predictions from three weird witches, it wakes up his hope from his inner heart. Even though he hesitates whether to kill Duncan or not, his ambition leads him to commit the crime at last. In our life, including me, we always come across this trap - challenge. In my previous school, students are fighting for pride all the time, hoping for post and teachers' admiration. Me as a human do have such desire as well, but I do not choose to achieve my ambition like Macbeth. Every time when the devil comes to me, I will persist by thinking the consequences. Is it worthwhile or not? Finally, I make up a decision to achieve my goal in a way that I will not regret afterwards. What I will be rewarded after success is true happiness. Not like Macbeth who does not feel happy after being the King of Scotland and needs to face the evilness that bothers him day after day. What he can do is to cover his fear and pretend. At last, he loses his conscience and is killed by his existing fear.====
