Linda's posts

Back then:

I just want Willy to be happy. He works his butt off to provide for his family. He wants Biff and Hap to be successful and well liked, and If thats what he wants, I want it to. They should do what their father wants them to do, considering what he has done for them. I know we don't got a lot of money right now, and that's our first problem. But, Willie just can't accept that, so we don't mention it much.

Now:

I understand Willie has hopes and dreams for his boys, but sometimes you've got to just let them go and do what THEY want to do. If they're happy by accomplishing whatever they accomplish, than I am satisfied and Willie should be too. Not everyone is the same. We are all different and we can't be expecting everyone to go along with what another person wants them to... If the boys become farmers, they've achieved their goals and that's what I'm proud of! We don't got a lot of money now either, but money isn't everything. I've got my family and that what I am most proud and excited about.. We will survive of that I'm sure.

  1. I saw Linda as a person who was content to have her family too. Throughout the whole play she was very compassionate with her whole family,except when the boys left their dad alone and went off to party. I think Linda was a humble person.

  2. This makes me wonder if Linda was concerned with money or not. She certainly was the one in charge of paying bills.I didn't get a sense that she wanted anything more than what she had...
