The central conflict in The Winter’s Tale is the violation of Nature on the part of the patriarch of the old generation‚ Leontes. I believe that in “The Winter’s Tale” the nature of each character and their fateNature in The Winter’s Tale is best understood as the ordered character of the universe.

We spend so much of our lives worried more about the reactions of others rather than the action itself. While the consequences may be small like wearing a different type of shirt that’s "in style" rather than the one you prefer‚ sometimes the fear of judgement limits our growth. I know so many people who have many brilliant ideas inside of them who never share them
