Their Eyes Were Watching God 2

the use of nature pervades the story. We see it in such instances when Janie talks to nature and especially the part where night itself takes over the narration. At the end of chapter four, hey describe the sun going down in the same spot as when the night came up. This was stated immediately after Janie was remarried to Joe. This could mean a few different things. It could be interpreted as her newfound happiness or euphoria with her new husband compared to the mundane qualities that permeated her old marriage. This comparison to nature is almost as she had discovered a new beginning, a new life. The last paragraph in chapter four could also represent her transition from girl to woman. I know earlier in the book when she was kissed she stated that her childhood has ceased from that moment on, but she still retained some child-like qualities, such as when she stated she still like sweet tasting things. Maybe it's a foreshadow of the events to come. Like Harvey Dent stated in The Dark Knight, "The night is always darkest before the dawn,  but the dawn is coming". Well, it seems as if she has come from troubled experiences in the past, but now the cycle is about to repeat itself again,with new terrible experiences in store.
