The Purpose Behind it All...
In my opinion the theme of, The Great Gatsby, is love can be one's downfall. Love is always seen as a great positive factor and or necessity in our lives ague to what extent is this statement true in terms of, "The Great Gatsby", is love really worth it in the end?
- Gatsby's love for Daisy that resulted in his death
- Daisy's "love" for Tom in the beginning shattered her life completely she was never truly happy
- Nick's relationship with Gatsby resulted in the depressive state of his life
Another, theme in mind is chasing our dreams is really not worth it or can bring negative factors in our lives. Everyone tells us to chase our dreams but in,"The Great Gatsby", that seems to fall into a negative category so, should we chase our dreams?
- For Gatsby he chased his dream of being wealthy man accompanied by Daisy but, that didn't happen he died
- Nick Carraway wanted to be a successful author and businessman but, that didn't happen he met Gatsby instead
- Daisy wished for a perfect life or a happy family if you will but, she did't her husband cheated on her and her true love died
