"He had all the wrong dreams. All, all, wrong."

Biff reveals that willy seemed genuinely content when working with his hands doing blue collar work, such as planting a garden. All his life, though, Willy pursued the White collar route of an esteemed business man. Biff says that Willy had the wrong dreams. I just want to write about the effect of social pressures on how people turn out to be. Willy had been bombarded with this ideal image of the American family and all it's riches. He felt like it was his duty, even though he didn't find happiness. He enjoyed working with his hands, but strayed from that lifestyle because of society's lack of respect for that sort of work. Society can be a menace sometimes, making us feel like we must be a certain way. We are told how to dress and look, or what to do with our lives. Sometimes, the results are shattering. For example, many women in modeling magazines have their photos tampered with and photoshopped to look skinny and unnatural. This puts in the head of women an idealized version of women. This has contributed to low self esteem and cases of bulimia and anorexia as women try to fit the mold that society wants them to fit. That's my rant. Society can be the menace, not always a person being a menace to society.
