Where art thou Hamlet????

I think Hamlet's story is a very unfortunate and sad one. He seemed like he was a smart guy that could have made better choices but I guess we all cope with things differently. But Hamlet's most famous quote "To be, or not to be:that is the question" (Act III Sc I) is still one of the questions that it most pondered about. I also think it puts human existence into perspective and my interpretation of that quote is what is our role here on earth. What is our calling??? Now I know you can not answer a question with another question but if I had to rephrase Hamlet's question, that would be my attempt. It is really hard to answer Hamlet's question in life sometimes because we spend most of our life trying to seek that which we must be here on earth. I think some people spend their whole life trying to find out who they truly are or must become. They search for their main duty here on this planet. But in the end it is our choice to be or not to be............but what is the the right answer to that question?
