千乘九

Gatsby's greatness

千乘九
Gatsby had the determination to stand out from childhood and made money when he grew up. Gatsby dreamed of becoming a big man when he was young. He despised his father and his origin, cut off contact with his family early and went to his ideal. In the meantime, he suffered a lot, but with extraordinary diligence, tenacity and cleverness, he learned a lot of things. Finally, he obtained a lot of wealth through various ways and became a rich man. His father later told his son's friends at his funeral that Gatsby had such and such determination since childhood, and also showed Gatsby's timetable. Gatsby is indeed a man of determination and perseverance. The pursuit of love. After five years of absence, in order to regain his old love and regain Daisy's attention, he didn't hesitate to spend money and hold a grand reception in the villa every weekend. When Daisy accidentally killed Mrs. Wilson, Gatsby took the initiative to bear the responsibility in order to protect daisy. Gatsby is not only a bootlegger, but also suspected of operating illegal activities such as baseball games and financial securities. The problem is that all he did was to buy the house opposite Daisy's place, to look at the green light at the end of Daisy's Wharf all night, to erase the past five years and make the past love reappear. What he pursues is a dream destined to be disillusioned, but he always strives to move forward. Finally, the desolation and loneliness of the funeral are essentially the same as the noise and excitement of the initial banquet. Gatsby is very lonely. As a secular success, he doesn't have a real friend (Nick later became his friend). Why is that? Because of his fictional life and experience, and because of his ulterior means of making money, he can't get real recognition anywhere. People associate with him only for profit. Finally, he touched his ultimate dream, but found that Daisy was different from his dream. Gatsby relied on her creativity to add too many things to Daisy's imagination that did not belong to her, which eclipsed Daisy's return to reality.Even so, Gatsby stubbornly asked Daisy to admit that she had never loved Tom and asked Daisy to go to Daisy's hometown to get married together after divorce. When dreams come true, they lose the light when they look at each other from a distance. Gatsby wants to recreate his past love and let Daisy's class accept him, but he doesn't understand a truth: what lies between him and daisy is not only the past five years, but also the class gap that is difficult to cross. Perhaps he understands that he just has to work hard to pursue his dream. He will never stop until he sees the disillusionment of his dream. Gatsby's greatness lies in what everyone lacked in that particular era, but he insisted. Life is like sailing against the current. Even if you know that you will be pushed back by the tide, you still have to move forward.
