George: Hey Willy hows everything going?
Willy: Ehh just tired of things not going the way I want it to go, nobody is doing things my way.
George: I know exactly how you feel there Willy.
Willy: Yeah I have big dreams for my family and nobody seems to see what I see or even listen for that matter its like I'm constantly talking to myself and everyone has tuned me out.
George: Yeah tell me about it. I tell my bud Lennie over and over again what my dream is for the both of us because he forgets things a lot.
Willy: Why do you tell him over and over again?
George: Well my friend Lennie is mentally disabled and I remind him constantly of what we aiming for to achieve our dreams.
Willy: Well at least he listens agrees with your future plans.
George: Yeah. What are your dreams anyway Willy?
Willy: Well I am very glad you asked George. You see I have big dreams. My dream is somewhat like the American dream. I want my boy Biff to get out there and get a real job being a successful salesman. And my son Happy I just want him to stop sleeping his way to the top and actually work hard to make it to the top. You know I want success for my boys.
George: Wow what a great dream you have for your boys. But did you ever ask them what their hopes and dreams are?
Willy: Well no not exactly George. You see Biff has told me things he has wanted to do such as going to work in the western part of the country on a farm. I mean come on thats not a real job.
George: Wow Willy thats offensive because I work on a farm and thats all I got to do for work. I think you should consider peoples feelings more and try to look at it from Biff's point of view.
Willy: I am sorry George I didn't mean to offend you, but I think your right I should look at things more from Biff's point of view. I guess I am just so paranoid as to if my boys will be successful or not.
George: Yeah it's alright things happen. I think things in your family will come together if you just sit back and hear them out for their hopes and dreams and it should make you feel very content because then you know they will be happy with whatever their doing.
Willy: Never thought of it that way George. I really understand now. Wow I'm glad we talked bud. I am going to try and put this crazy American dream behind me and really go and hear what my families hopes and dreams are.
George: Well your welcome. Anytime. I know everything will work out well.
Willy: It was nice talking to you George. It really was a pleasure.
George: Yes it was a pleasure. But I have to get back to the farm and work and go and check on Lennie, I can't leave him alone by himself for too long.
Willy: Yeah I understand. Well talk to you later bud bye!
George: bye.
