Why is it more important to pursue what makes you happy and passionate rather than a higher paycheck or better social status?
tatiyna

Answer:

In my experience you have two choices. You can either work during the week doing something you are not passionate about but make more money and do whatever you want on the weekends, or you can work for what you are passionate about 24/7  but make less money.

Personally I will pursue the second option because I feel that life is too short for me to live out my days in a box office.

Mrac [35]

Answer and explanation:

At the end of the novel "The Great Gatsby", the narrator, Nick, imagines what the continent must have been like when it was first seen by Dutch sailors. In Nicks words,

<em>"... I became aware of the old island here that flowered once for Dutch sailors' eyes--a fresh, green breast of the new world. Its vanished trees, the trees that had made way for Gatsby's house, had once pandered in whispers to the last and greatest of all human dreams; for a transitory enchanted moment man must have held his breath in the presence of this continent, compelled into an aesthetic contemplation he neither understood nor desired, face to face for the last time in history with something commensurate to his capacity for wonder."</em>

<u>The America Nick is describing here is pure, green, rich, and filled with endless possibilities. It is like the Garden of Eden before sin, so to speak. The Dutch sailors were probably breathless when facing such beauty, such potential. That image, however, contrasts greatly with the story Nick has just told readers; a story set in a sickened America, a country where being wealthy is more important than being happy or honest. Greed and lust have corrupted everything and everyone - just as they did in the Garden of Eden. Appearances are now all there is in East and West Eggs. And appearances are not even present in the Valley of Ashes, the portrait of decadence, the picture of exploitation and misery.</u>
