The Great Gatsby was a great travel down memory lane as i read it in the eighth grade. But so much more was opened up to my understanding as I have grown older. This book has so many valuable lessons on life, and how easy it is to slip up and make a mistake. Through Gatsby i have learned to be careful of the past for it may repeat itself. As well as to pursue happiness and not those objects which are often filled in its place. Money,power,beauty, all so easy of a temptation,but so easily misunderstood;so easily misused by those seeking to fill a void. I plan on reading this book many more times in my life, and each time i will learn something new, for life is a never yearning for knowledge and understanding.
