Why do dreams sometimes fail?
Limitations, bondage and era are the main reasons why dreams fail. In Israel some Arab-Israeli children dream of reconciliation. Others, have dream to escape bondage. For the most part, these dream seems impalpable, because-enmity between these two ethnic groups has separated them, and people are not willing to be sensible and come into terms of agreement. A Palestinian child may try to escape when their older-just to feel liberated, if only for a moment. Their dream is abruptly shattered-and they are taken back to Palestinian territory. Palestinians dreams fail, because no matter how hard they work to overcome their predicament, they are not in control so thus, their bondage becomes a generational cycle. Israeli children, allowed more freedom may dream of peace to. Growing older, realizing that dream will never be reality, hope is lost, they are-discouraged; so they accommodate to what they see, which is war and violence. George and Lennie share a dream, a dream to own their own farm. Not saying that their dream will fail, but it is very likely. They are both uneducated, and the Great Depression is happening. Jobs are hard to find, and another problem added to that is Lennie has a mental disorder. All of, these things thwart the possibility of owning a farm! Their dream would be attainable, if they take care of one issue at a time, and if they are patient. Trying to buy a farm in a Depression, is an unwise idea, simply because no one has money. Also, George and Lennie said they dreamed of having their own land; with patience and appropiate timing, they could have their own land, without having to share it.
