[Minute of Mindfulness/suggestion: What do you imagine will give you the freedom to really go for what you want in life?]

JOURNAL TOPIC: (today's tunes: "Green Light" by John Legend w Andre 3000; "Green Light" by Lorde)

Chapter 1 of The Great Gatsby ends with Nick (our narrator) seeing Gatsby reach out toward a green light (the end of a dock?) across the water.  Take a guess: given what you know about green, and lights, what do you imagine this symbol can possibly mean?  Use the epigraph and anything else we've read/discussed so far to support your idea.
