Everyone wants the "American Dream." Lennie and George are no different. They want to have there own land and have crops with cows, chickens, pigs, and of course rabbits, which Lennie would tend to.Their dream is very similar to a lot of other men, it's very realistic because many men have worked their way up to having their own land. But, during the Great Depression it would have been very hard.
It's important to have dreams because without dreams there is no push to do anything to get further than where you are now. When others doubt your dreams you have trouble going for your dreams. Curley's wife doubted Lennie and George's dream, probably because she didn't fulfill her dream. After a long time of dreams not fulfilled they soon become forgotten and loss of hope. Traveling from place to place having no sett home or family makes it easier to keep to a dream rather than just facing reality.
