What are the obstacles standing in the way of a beautiful, dreamy love affair between Daisy and Jay?

English

Ivahew [28]2 years ago

Answer:

Daisy married Tom for his status and wealth and is not willing to leave the old money society for Jay Gatsby.

Explanation:

Although Daisy is and was in love with Jay Gatsby for a long time, she married Tom for financial reasons and prestige.<u> She is also staying married to him mostly for financial reasons.</u> Therefore, she can’t get into a real relationship with Gatsby.

<u>Daisy has decided to marry Tom while Jay was in the war as she wanted a husband that comes from the same class of the old money as she does.</u> Yet, when Jay Gatsby does get the money to win Daisy back, it is from his ties with gangsters that gave him a <u>bad reputation</u> and started rumors about him not having clean motives.

Finally, Daisy is obviously not willing to leave her lifestyle, old money society, and reputation for Jay Gatsby. It is clear he is in love with her more than he is in love with him, and that he would sacrifice it all for their relationship. On the other hand, Daisy is too fond of her life to lose it over the man she loves.

<span>In his book Walden, a reflection on the act of living as simply as possible, Thoreau spoke at length on the impact of technology on our daily lives and humanity as a whole. He believed that technology was leading to a degradation of our relations with one another and with the natural world. He cited the construction of a telegraph line from Maine to Texas, saying,"We are in great haste to construct a magnetic telegraph line from Maine to Texas; but Maine and Texas, it may be, have nothing important to communicate." We can see them same in our modern day quest for the "next big thing"; snapping up the latest iPhone for hundreds of dollars, posting ever more on social media, with many having nothing important to contribute to a wider world despite access to that world at an unprecedented level. As a society, we have at our fingertips the lessons and work of all the world's great thinkers and scholars, and yet a great number of people use the potential at hand to watch funny cat videos. I believe that this is a sign of the degradation that Thoreau spoke of made manifest.</span>
