I have to write essay about why shakespeare's literature is very difficult to understand for us today. I have given many reasons like old english, focus on old lives traditions. What else would convince people that shakespeare is difficult. I found also another point that shakespeare use lot of methamorphoses. One of the example is:
"Thou art a Moniment, without a tombe
And art alive still, while thy Booke doth live,
And we have wits to read, and praise to give.

Could u translate this for me? I can't understand. And is this addressed to man named ben?
Besides proving these arguments I mentioned above, what would be good to prove why sheakspeare's literature is very difficult?

I have seen a ton of tutorials on how to digital paint but they always leave out important steps such as what brush to use and how to blend colors etc. I am very fustrated at this. Anyone have suggestions?

Ok, I want to know if say, someone wrote a diary, journal, whatever, put it in, say a hiding place in their house and nobody found it for say, 100+ years.
Would it still be possible to read it and touch it?
And it not fall apart?

I currently play bass on my drumline in high school and most likely will play snare next year. Our line is ok but we aren't all hardcore and we are HORRID at reading music. I have been looking at college drumlines and I don't think I can make it. So I am considering switching instruments maybe mellophone or trumpet? What do you think I should do? What is an "easier" instrument I can learn?

A dark cloud hanging
Just hanging
With no light to see
Without light
Without hope
A future not seen

A fight to grow
To see what you can’t see
Emptiness all around
Empty pain
Empty suffering
In a youth so green

A readiness is needed
To learn and be who you can be
Freedom you seek
Free soul
Free mind
The life intended for teen
