Were Watching God Relationships

When jealousies arise through the flirtation of Nunkie, a girl who takes a liking to Tea Cake, Janie and Tea Cake fight but talk through and express their feelings over the flirtation to one another until each gives in and they become united once more (188–191). This jealousy is completely unlike Jody’s jealousy of men looking at Janie’s hair in the store; where Jody refuses to open up and explain his feelings to Janie because of his pride, Tea Cake and Janie are able to communicate their emotions to one another and resolve the tension. While her other two marriages were action based and emotional deaths of love, the pride that kills Janie’s third marriage is a physical death. Tea Cake pridefully refuses an offer to take Janie and escape from the Everglades before the hurricane comes upon them. Tea Cake tells ‘Lias, who has offered he and Janie a ride out of the Everglades “Man, de money’s too good on the muck.

ARGUMENT #2 Introduction Throughout the story, Hanan Shakyhs focuses on a dysfunctional family in the story “The Persian Carpet”. The child narrator claims that she has control of herself and the situation by stating that she fully knows herself; when in reality, she has forgotten her resolve and was anticipating the meeting with her mother by gladly stating that she would not give up hope on their relationship. However, the situation drastically changed when the narrator discovered the carpet that was laying on the floor which resulted the main character’s outrage. Moreover, she states that “Ilya was almost a blind man who used to go round of the houses of the quarter repairing cane chairs” (Hanan, 254). This passage is imperative to the

Phoeby confirms to Janie that she is being gossiped about even though Janie tells her that it doesn’t really matter what other people think about her. Phoeby worries that “Tea Cake” took her money and found a younger girl. Janie rebukes this. However, she does tell Phoeby that “Tea Cake” is gone. “Janie saw her life like a great tree in leaf with the things suffered, things enjoyed, things done, and undone," and soon afterwards she notices a bee pollinating a flower and believes that this is representative of love.

I am glad Tea Cake cared but maybe beating up the brother would have been a more direct hint to stay away from his wife. Or possibly just having an adult conversation. Maybe even just locking the door so they could not come in. Anything but beating his wife. What was just as bad was that everyone praised him and were jealous of their relationship.

As we know, when Janie had to marry Logan she gets her dreams of a beautiful and happy marriage crushed. All the dreams she had for a happily ever after was washed away with marrying him “She knew now that marriage did not make love. / Janie’s first dream was dead, so she became a woman.” And earlier we see that she felt he was “was desecrating the pear tree” but did not know how to tell her Nanny, so she just “hunched over and pouted at the floor”. So as tie goes on things go as expected and she meets someone named Jody Startks. And even though he did not meet the standard of her pear tree, he seemed like a better option than what was in her life at the moment.

And how Nea deals with this events. This story is written with the immature and unreliable 12-year old perspective. These two sisters have grown together all through their life’s, creating a strong bound, and the fact that her family and a “old guy” is taking away her sister is something she can’t stand. In the end Nea believes that she is saving Sourdi from Mr.Chhay and her mother. However what Nea does not understand in all her youth and idealism , is that sourdi does not want to be saved: She willfully accepts her fate and her marriage to Mr.Chhay because she finds financial stability and a secure future.

As Lena and Harold are talking downstairs about “useless things”, the lyrics “I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited/But I couldn’t stay away, I couldn’t fight it” would be played as Ying-Ying St. Clair is thinking when she should reveal herself and tell her about her wisdom. The lines “sometimes is lasts in love but hurts instead”, could also be used to relate to how Lena and Harold were married happily first, but then over time it went downhill and started to “hurt” both of them. Ying-Ying’s

The Bennets were engaged to dine with the Lucases and again during the chief of the day was Miss Lucas so kind as to listen to Mr. Collins. Elizabeth took an opportunity of thanking her. 'It keeps him in good humour,' said she, 'and I am more obliged to you than I can express.' Charlotte assured her friend of her satisfaction in being useful, and that it amply repaid her for the little sacrifice of her time. This was very amiable, but Charlotte's kindness extended farther than Elizabeth had any conception of; its object was nothing else than to secure her from any return of Mr. Collins's addresses, by engaging them towards herself.

He died while she was on a pilgrimage to Jerusalem. Of her fifth husband, she has much more to say. She loved him, even though he treated her horribly and beat her. He was coy and flattering in bed, and always won her back. Women, the Wife says, always desire what is forbidden them, and run away from whatever pursues or is forced upon

The phrase “I am sure” is a powerful phrase that a person is very positive with a certain subject. The sentence also brings up the meaning that Kenny 's girlfriend thinks Kenny messes up her and her girlfriends’ Valentine’ date, and she is not happy. On another side, when people is unsure about certain things, they tend to use powerless language to make a statement. One example from the television program about using powerless language is when Kenny is eating chocolates and talking his plan with ex - boyfriend, a girl asks Kenny’s girlfriend “Did his brother dump him, or did he die?”, and Kenny’s girlfriend replies “I don’t know, but he’s eating all of our chocolate.” (TV show). In this example, the phrase “I don’t know” is a common phrase for powerless language, and it reflects Kenny’s girlfriend is unsure to the question that the girl asks.

While Tea Cake might have been doomed, the white Dr Simmons helped save Janie. If they avoided the white world entirely, Janie would have likely been shot by Tea Cake, and both of them would have died. Their Eyes Were Watching God is concluded with Janie achieving peace and serenity. Considering her past experiences, this could very easily be considered growing and flourishing. Because of a white doctor, she was able to
