1. What does the green light mean?
In China's ancient poems, there are two lines, that is, when it is false, it is true, and when it is false, there is nothing to be done. There are no sad songs for me. I don't know the difference between flowers and people. I think these two poems are also very suitable to explain the meaning of green light. In fact, this is a symbolic technique of the director, using light to compare daisies. It is not only the beacon light in Gatsby's life, but also makes him feel close at hand and within reach. It is as elusive as Alice's dream.
Gatsby lost his dream Daisy, and it was his fantasy that sustained Gatsby all these years. This green light hints at Daisy. This illusion is so beautiful that Gatsby has always been willing to give up everything to pursue such light. But how can this absolutely beautiful illusion overlap with the real Daisy? So the moment Gatsby and Daisy meet again is also the moment when they are separated from each other. Gatsby wants to pursue Daisy in his mind, just like the green light on the other side. No matter how hard he shouts in the dark, he can never embrace the warm and intoxicating light.
Second, why did Daisy leave Gatsby?
Since Gatsby likes Daisy so much, he regards Daisy as the guiding light of his life and wants to give her everything he has. So why did Daisy leave Gatsby? This is because Daisy is a delicate rich girl. She is very indecisive and sensitive. And the love in Gates is so hot that she is intoxicated, but after being intoxicated, she will have a sense of oppression that she can't breathe.
From then on, Daisy wanted to escape from Gatsby. She can't bear the pressure, but Gatsby wants Daisy to make a choice as soon as possible, which makes Daisy even more afraid and she has to flee. So Gatsby's fiery feelings drove Daisy away, and he also lost the warm green light in his heart.
Third, summary.
From it, I can also draw that although love is beautiful, if your love is too hot, it may drive away the person you love, so that the person you love can't bear such stressful love and can only choose to escape. Therefore, although we should love each other, we should also give each other some space of our own, and we should not push too hard.
