Noe Gil's perspective on janie's life

The horizon is Janie’s goal and it widens as she notices that she gets held back by men, but she notices that she has taken the wrong track to her horizon as she “dies.” For example, in the beginning of the book it states that there were ships in the horizon that carry wishes, but some people get them as the ships reach the shore. The horizon widens as she gets held back by men because men don’t help her but put more ships in her horizon. In the last paragraph, it talks about how she brought up all her feelings and thoughts to figure out what she did wrong. As she did so, “she called out her soul to come and see.” In order for her to die peacefully, she wanted to acknowledge what she did wrong that she couldn’t reach her horizon.
