Commentary "human Dreams"

            Describing the human dreams throughout the book, brings a lot of dreams to my mind. Some of the human dreams being Gatsby marrying and falling in love again with Daisy and them going off together starting a family of their own together.  Another dream towards the end was maybe that Nick wanted to go to Jordan again and have them fall in love, although it didn’t say this in the book, I got the sense out of Nick that he wanted to be with her again.  He seemed a little upset to hear that Jordan was engaged.  He could have been going to her house to tell her he still loved her, but this I’m not for sure of.  Another human dream was Myrtle to be in love with Tom and probably a dream of hers was to live a longer life. Then I think that the author of the books dream for us was that we the readers would see what lying and deceiving does to someone and the book is trying to teach us how wrong and how many lives you can take and or hurt.  It’s dream is to help us realize the lying and deceiving and maybe help make less of it.
