THE CONFLICT!

The Conflict

 

The main conflict in this story of “of Mice and Men” and author Steinbeck John and this story is about character v.s fate. Most of the time George and Lennie always talked about how they are going to have a barn with chickens, big vegetable, and rabbits for Lennie to tend. They always imaged it in their mind but it never really happen so that is the reason  why  fate was my choice . Because it really shows that they are the person that is going to work in a ranch so its basically the opposite of whatever they say about other people which they really are talking about their self's. That is also a reason that my option was choosing fate because they really think their going to get something but they won’t they always imagined it but it never happened yet so that is why  my option is fate because theres a lot of detail that just pops up in mine about it.

Then during the 1st chapter pg. 14 it says “ well” said George, “we’ll have a big vegetable patch and a rabbit hutch and chickens”. This shows that they always thought about doing it but never did. They were o.k. with it when they had a job so that they can work and get the barn they always had fated on. Then Lennie will be really happy because he will get a chance to tend all the animals like the chickens, rabbits, and dogs.Then he will get the chance to live out his dreams and fate at the same time. He would also change his life by making his dream come true and live life in a good way. He might even learn from that and he will be a smarter person then he won’t get  to be controlled he would know what to do instead of someone directing him.

    Later then, George said “what they are not to do, they ain’t got nothing to head to.” pg.14.This quote is actually showing what they really are. They always bring up in mine who’s going to have a barn and have all these vegetable and all the animals but didn’t get nothing so that is why i said earlier they are talking about their self's and making them look bad like poor. They also said they were going to succeed but they never did. They always wanted to make it work but theirs always something going in their way. It was hard for Lennie to concentrate on that. He always tried not to get in trouble but he got in trouble basically he did it by accident and did the opposite.

Sooner later, when Lennie kill Curley’s  wife and then Lennie runs away then George found him because he told him to go there if there was any trouble. Then they talk about how their lives are going to be. then Lennie said “go on George. George said “ Guys like us got no fambly. They make a little stake an’ then they blow it in”.” They aint got nobody in the worl’ that gives a hoot in hell about em’----” this shows that George is basically talking about Lennie. Because of all of the terrible things he have done. Which all of the things that Lennie done George knows he didn’t mean to or try to.

In conclusion this quote really shows fate because it tell what they always wanted to do. they even thought about how many money they should even make to get the farm so that they can make their own business. They already made a plan since the begin of the book they left it in their head like it was planted their for a reason then it died when Lennie died which was very sad. They also remembered but never did it because of all the accident that Lennie cause like the killing of Curley’s wife he accidentally kill her by stroking her neck so that she can be quite. All the cause of their fate its because of all of Lennies accidents which Lennie hates because he couldn’t tend the rabbit and couldn’t have his fate at all. But i think maybe when hes in heaven he will have it because he didn’t mean to do anything wrong he just didn’t listen to George and when he doesn’t listen to him that's when his fate starts ticking out.
