Arts 18 March 2014 Romeo and Juliet Don’t fall in love as a teen; you might end up killing yourself.

Although this play was a tragedy‚ there were some bright sides. Romeo and Juliet were in love‚ and generally‚ being in love gives one feelings of joy and contentment. “This bud of love‚ by summers ripening

And in Act III:iii‚ We see character development when Romeo is expressing his feelings about how because of his banishment‚ he will not be able to see‚ hear nor touch his “heaven” or Juliet but animals will be able to look upon her and flies will be able to touch her.
