Dreams

     It is imporant to have dreams because it helps you go on in life.  Also, if other people doubt your dreams, ignore them until you realize it isn't possible to make your dream come true.  If you don't have dreams, you won't have anything to strive for.  But, if your dream doesn't happen for a long time after you hoped to have made it come true, you have two options.  You could give up on that dream or edit it (change it a little).  Also, a good time to hold on to a dream that might not come true, is when you are really poor or don't have anything else to strive for.  One reason is because it will give you something to look foward to or help push you into doing something to make it real.  An example of a dream is George and Lennie's dream about owning their own property, instead of working on ranches and running away whenever Lennie does something stupid.  Also, in their property they want to have a little house with a barn next to it.  Plus, they want to have a farm on that property, so they can live off the land.  Another thing Lennie wants to do is to tend rabbits because he likes fluffy/soft things.  I personally think they could have made this dream a reality if they saved their money and have other people (like Candy) help them.
