Pursue Your Dreams
Throughout Chapter 3, Kurt Vonnegut describes Billy at war and Billy in his dreams. He jumped from when Weary was crying due to the the pain on his feet to Billy driving a Cadillac to work as a doctor. I really found interesting how suddenly <i was reading world war two and then 1967 with Billy at his house. I did not feel the jumps from on e time period to another which made me even go deeper into the reading because it hooked me. Also, how he describes Billy stupidity but calm throughout being a prisoner along with Roland Weary and Wild Bob. The description of the characters is also really accurate which makes the reader go into the characters shoes like how Billy had hope and imagined himself in the future and how he referred to the tank´s inside as heaven. It is also very abundant the phrase: So it goes. He uses it after he describes a situation or event making the reader deduce the details or wonder what exactly happened. His references to Adam and Eve and connection like when Wild Bob says if you are in cody ask for Wild Bob and suddenly O´Hare and Billy are there.

But what I found most important was:
GOD GRANT ME
SERENITY TO ACCEPT
THE THINGS I CANNOT CHANGE
COURAGE
TO CHANGE THE THINGS I CAN
AND WISDOM ALWAYS
TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE
Billy always had his motivation clear because no one can live throughout all those atrocities without some king of guidance or motivation (at least not me haha). Everybody should pursue their dreams and 1967 was Billy´s dream, therefore he was doing the right thing. Billy, like Forrest Gump, knew they had another obstacle more than other people but had the hope of achieving things of the same magnitude. That´s why up to now, Billy has impressed me each time more...
