the god of hurstons eyes.....

the kind of god that Hurston's character was watching s the god of love. who has a caring heart; Janie does begin to question god because everytime she falls for someone it starts off good but ends up bad. Hurston's character was being watched by the god of love because janie has a sensitive heart, she puts other people needs instead of hers first, and she wants to be loved. janie begins questioning god because all of her husbands she married start off treating her like a queen but once they really get in to the relationship and opening up her husbands begin showing their real colors. her first husband logan killocks was rich and had massive amounts of land and was the single bachelor in town. her grandmother kept pushing her to marry him and she knew something was wrong if she was marrying him for money instead of love but she did it any way. down the relationship everything turned bad he was old and heis heart wasn't were she wanted it to be. joe starks her second husband was just like the first but she felt a connection to him which was strange but asa she was falling in love joe was falling for jealousy. he became possive wanting her to wrap her hair up, don't speak unless spokem to,and act like a classy woman. joe fell ill and she in a way she felt bad but she knew once he was gone she would have her freedom back. teacake won her over, her thrid husband. of course she had problems trusting him why would'nt she? everytime she opened up to a man and tried to be a wife over and over agian but still got her heart crushed. janie questioned the god of love because out of all three husbands why was this happening to her? why couldn't she find love? why did it feel like every man she ever tried to love broke her heart? janie just wanted to be cared for,taken care of,loved,and nourished but because of all her rough journeys she failed to do so.
