Love and Secrets

Quest for Love bears no Fruit
It is impossible to explain what Love is; the ugly, the disabled, the smartest, and all other

types experience it and follow the direction of their heart, and so did Jay Gatsby in his quest to

meet Daisy Buchanan, his longtime love fantasy. Thanks to Nick for inviting his cousin Daisy,

Jay Gatsby meets her. Now that she is married, what is he going to tell her? When Nick warns

daisy by saying, "Don’t bring Tom,” (Fitzgerald 64), what is his intention? While introducing his

story, Nick states that after boasting for years of being tolerant, “I come to the admission that it

has a limit” (Fitzgerald 4). Was Nick's statement foreshadowing what would happen to Jay?

After making a fortune from scratch, Jay moves to the elite but is still determined to meet his

love Daisy, indicating that Love overweighs wealth. Rumor had it that Gatsby had a little to say

to Daisy, using most of his time to stare at her. However, there is something that a listener would

identify from this Nick's story, the elite has a secret and rarely welcome new players into their

circle.

Can you imagine figuring out who this Great Gatsby would be and how he made his

wealth? Well, everyone is asking. For example, when Tom says, "was down there at a party

about a month ago. At a man named Gatsby’s. Do you know him?” (Fitzgerald 27). There is

unverified information stating that Gatsby made his fortune by being associated with the elite,

such as Kaiser Wilhelm's; however, there is a twist when Tom states to Daisy that he

investigated Gatsby and identified that he makes his money through the sale of illegal alcohol in

Chicago. The writer also realized that Daisy had never loved her husband Tom; would she have

lived with Gatsby instead? Well, choices have consequences, and even at his death, he loved

Daisy, and she probably loved him in equal measure. Gatsby died a popular and famous man;

however, what is the secret that the rich such as Daisy, Tom, and their counterparts have? Maybe

we shall know in another life.
