    created it. We realize that time was truly not on Gatsby’s side because of the harsh reality of Daisy. “I don’t think he had ever believed in its existence before” this corroborates the effective use of time as a symbol because Gatsby seems to be happy physically‚ with the new found money he gained‚ but emotionally he feels lonely because Daisy is not his.
