Janie

I admire Janie for having to put up with men wheather they were her husbands or other folks in the city. I also admire her for trying to find herself in her period of time, which was when men still thought women weren't completly equals and slaves were just becoming free. I pity that she had to marry Logan Killicks because with him she feels nothing, she doesn't want him and she doesn't love him the way a man and wife should. Then i pity her marrying Jody who came by Logan's place and told her about his dream and offered for her to come with him which she did thinking she'd found real love but later on he didn't love her like he should either he just wanted a housewife. I felt happiness for her when she met and married Tea Cake because she had finally found real love and finds herself when she's independent. Then sadness when she lost him to rabies and had to return to where she came from. She's came a long way because she had to defend for herself twice once against gossip and people wanting her land and money and once against people who scorned her and law also deal with three husbands. She survived all that and a storm and found herself and is now content with just herself, so I admire her more than anything.
