The caring and selfless facade that all of Gatsby's friends, except Nick Caraway, displayed throughout their period of friendship with Gatsby was revealed to be a lie then that Nick is the only person who even bothered to do it. show up at Gatsby's funeral. It's a story that makes you re-evaluate your life, your dreams, your goals and especially the people you consider your friends. Daisy never loved Gatsby the way he loved her. This is proven time and time again throughout their relationship. It is also the story of two very different men who find common ground and become best friends. Finally, we can explore Gatsby's life and how his life came to an abrupt end because he pursued his dream with everything he had and he wasn't going to let anything stop him. Daisy Buchanan, also known as the love of Gatsby's life, was the only person Gatsby truly wanted in his life. Gatsby paid the ultimate price by giving his life for Daisy. This shows the extent of his love for her. A quote that shows exactly what I'm trying to prove is on page 110: "He (Gatsby) knew that when he kissed that girl and forever associated her unspeakable visions with her perishable breath, his mind would never wander never again as the thought of God.

Daisy may have loved Gatsby, but I think she craved the promise of support she saw in the dollar sign. At that time, it was not common for a woman to support herself. Daisy felt the pressure to ensure that she would be taken care of for the rest of her life, even if it meant she had to live with an unfaithful husband. A quote that gives this statistic...... middle of paper...... plenty to show him exactly where he didn't want to be. The motivation he got from it almost pushed him to the limit. Gatsby was a great man stuck in a dream who was heading toward disaster and failure from the start. None of us can choose where, when and to whom we are born. In all honesty, the best we can do is accept the “hand we’ve been dealt” and do our best to make a better life out of it. You are responsible for what you do with your life. It comes down to the choices we made. Life has a funny way of showing your true colors to the world. A facade is absolutely worthless when you're on your deathbed and there isn't a single person who will care and be there to comfort you. It is then unfortunately too late to do anything. Pay attention to the way you live, because it will define who you are and who you will be known as..
