During my project, I read the books Jane Eyre and Song of Achilles. Both of these books are love stories. While reading, I gained insight into the deeply complex emotions that the characters experience. In both books, the characters experience jealousy. I related to the characters when they were experiencing jealousy, as I wrote my own personal stories about feeling jealous. For example, in Song of Achilles, Patroclus experiences jealousy when he finds out that Achilles was sleeping with another person. In Jane Eyre, Jane is jealous when she discovers Mr. Rochester might marry another woman. Through these stories, I was shown clearly the feelings of jealousy and through these stories I could relate to them with jealousy I have experienced in my life. Now, I feel more aware of my own feelings, especially when it comes to negative feelings that aren’t helpful, like jealousy, and I can better keep them in check.
