The Tension is Rising


This weeks reading of Atlas Shrugged has brought more drama and made me want to keep reading. I love all the conflict between the Taggart siblings and the problems that they have to face. Although this has to do with the making of railroads I feel like these problems between the two of them stem from something that happened when they were younger which is why there is so much conflict. Dagny is a character that I enjoy because she is such a strong woman and she knows exactly what she wants. If there is a problem she goes directly to the person she has to deal with.  Dagny is not the conventional woman. She is proud to be a woman and does not let any man get in her way. This is inspires me as a woman to go out and get what I want and not let anyone stop me. When Wyatt gives her the ultimatum she says no problem and that she will fix everything. He is in shock because he thought that she was going to create all of these excuses, but she did not. That is the kind of woman that she is. When she goes to talk to Hank about making the railroads as soon as possible, Hank sees that he is not the only person in the world that cares so much about his work and he feels like he can relate to her. This left me asking myself “Will something happen between them in the future?”
