Could Morrison Be Trying to Make a Statment??
After further reading, I decided that I have developed another quesion:I wonder if Morrison is saying that when one doesnt recall those terrible memories that they have they will be able to get over their hardships and end their life of struggle. I wonder this because Sethe is constantly reminded of her terrible memories and it is hard for her to get over them. Each thing that she recalls from the past translates more hardships that she also experienced in the past to the reader. On the other hand Paul D doesnt really recount his terrible memories and he seems to be stronger than Sethe. What do you think?

Personally, I think that it is ironic that it brings more hardships for her. In personal experience and throughout my reading novels and books I have come to learn that myself as well as the characters usually become stronger from reminders or remembering about one's hardships. I think that hardships enable one to grow and learn from mistakes that one makes as well as other people. I hope that things look up for Sethe and that the hardships she remembers or is reminded of will eventually make her a better person.
