A sad beginning with an even worst ending.

     A heart shattered of dreams unlived, a smile that makes you believe an untold story,
and a husband that does not make me feel like a woman.
    
     That is what I Janie be feelin like
since a little girl ma old nanny wanted to see me married.
But what she didn't see what dat, dat was her dream not mine.
I thought of marriage as something valuable, it was my dream,
but now it's all down a drain.

     Lovin was something bound not to happen in ma first marriage. I didnt love that man and never has.
Everything was ignorance in that relationship, the way he was jealous was unnecessary.

     So as I met the guy of my dreams I say "Oh Lord, Lord, Lord Amen!" But that wasn't for all ma life. Only showing his good side was what got me... but all that ended once men would just look at ma hair. Him telling me what to do and wut I was doing wrongs, got to my head. And as I pray for yet another day to pass livin in this misery.

Behold the future of Janie...

     As Janie got married with the man her nanny wanted her to marry, she thought that maybe she could learn to love him but did not happen. She went on not loving him and he soon began to loose interest in her and started treating her like any other woman telling her what to do but in a less male dominance way but with the same outcome. As once she saw herself with the man she loved she soon met the guy of her dreams. Right after the nanny died she found answers. She ended up running away with the man she met leaving her husband and remarrying. But she does not know that, that was a mistake for what will happen later on with him is worst.

FUTURE...

     For high school teens like us our future is full of big dreams. For boys college life is written all over their mind! Some not having a girlfriend is best for them, they have their career planned out and all. Most of the time they know exactly what they will do and where they want to work. They know exactly what they have to do to get there. Unfortunately most but not all guys think about their future as getting married to the dream girl of their dreams, and have their life planned out and all. Maybe its the right thing to do, but thats how guys sound about the dreams in their future.
     As for girls it depends what your heart wants. We can easily get influenced by our family to go.for something we dont want. We probably think of our dream life doing what we love with the people we love. Our familyband career are always in the back of our mind as well as guys. Dreams are big and life full of them. Enjoy while you're young and have plans to archive. As we grow up how our future will turn out is always a dream behind our mind.

Questions without Answers...

1. Why is Daisy STILL married to Tom?
2. By Nick being so reserved, does he win anything?
3. Did Tom have a really good reason for hitting Mrs. Wilson...?

Violence in THIS Marrige...

The little dog was sitting on the table looking with blind eyes
through the smoke, and from time to time groaning faintly.
People disappeared, reappeared, made plans to go somewhere, and then lost each other,

searched for each other, found each other a few feet away.
Some time toward midnight Tom Buchanan and Mrs. Wilson stood face to face discussing, i
n impassioned voices, whether Mrs. Wilson had any right
to mention Daisy’s name.

“Daisy! Daisy! Daisy!”
shouted Mrs. Wilson. “I’ll say it whenever I want to! Daisy! Dai ——”
Making a short deft movement, Tom Buchanan
broke her nose
with his open hand.

Then there were bloody towels upon the bath-room floor,
and women’s voices scolding,
and high over the confusion a long broken wail of pain.

(Fitzgerald page 42)

Money vs. Happiness

     Money can buy you all sorts of valuable things, but never true love. Love cannot be brought with money because in reality that is not a love that comes from the heart but instead from interest. One who looks into a person for their status in money wise isn't there because they love them but instead because they need the money, theres all sorts of things you can do to get money but you should never use someone for what they have economically.
     For instance money will not be there all the time. There will be times where you'll need to save money one way or another, maybe you get fired or the economy is just at its worst. Things will change and if you dont stick to your partner during the bad circumstances, you shouldn't be there at his best either. Once you die you don't take a single dollar with you in that grave. Yes you need it to get buried or to do whatever you want happening to your dead body...but that will not be your problem anymore. It will be your families and if they truly loved you when you where alive they'll want the best for you once you're far away. Love grows and never fades. It can only get stronger, even with those struggles... love has to overcome it.
     I personally would never marry for money. My love cannot be bought, and I will be the only one to choose who to marry. He has to have standards in his life and his bank account will be the last thing I'll worry about. Although he will  need to have his mind set for our future. Because being married will mean we become one and whatever we face we'll face it together. Money wont interfere as long as we have enough to make it happily ever after. 

The Role of Appearances

    You can appear to be a person you're not by the way you dress, talk, and act. Dressing a certain way always says something about you, weather it's dressing good or bad. The way you speak and how you speak reflects where you come from. And by acting a certain way people are able to tell what type of person you are. Usually the way you dress and act will define (in school wise) with what type of people you'll be hanging out with because you'd probably get along with people you can relate too.
     In the period we are living in appearances take a big spot in our eyes. Just by seeing what a person you don't even know is wearing will make you judge them right away. In order to not look different you would most likely wear whats "in" or "the new thing" to impress the people that are around you. When you go shopping you might ask someone how a certain pair of jeans or shirt looks because you don't want to make a fool of yourself once you wear it after buying it. Opinion seems to always be important when its really not necessary all the time, because what you choose is what makes you unique from others. You don't need to buy your clothes at a certain store just because of the brand and because its what everyone is wearing. For one, what you might find pretty in another store might not be pretty at the other or maybe just cost more because of the brand logo. You have to make sure that whatever you get is comfortable while wearing it not just having the brand in front and making you feel uncomfortable. Be yourself, love yourself.
     Physical looks don't matter to me but instead the way they are by heart. I look into their personality not at what they are wearing and if their clothing looks expensive or not, none of that! Even by the way I myself dress and act would surprise you if you saw what kind of people I talk to. I don't go off of looks, I just become friends with whoever welcomes me in a friendship, having a nice conversation can already make you my friend. Money never even crosses my mind while seeing or meeting a person. Hopefully money never crosses my mind because well...it's irrelevant in a relationship. I won't want a friend or anyone for their money because thats selfish and thanks to God I've never had the need to come close with someone by money interest and hope I never will. It can be different depending in what type of person you are, maybe looks and money do matter to you...but would you want someone around you for what you have? Look into their hearts and personality not at what someday might be gone.
