Sethe’s decision has effects not only on herself but all others surrounding her. We see people scared of and off by her decision; people like Paul D, Howard and Buglar, and the whole community. A decision like this does not only have negative effects. Denver is portrayed as weak throughout most of the novel. Nearing the end and finding out more and more information we see a new side to her. A little girl once afraid to leave the house takes her first steps away from 124. She makes these steps in search of food and nourishment for her malnutrition mother. Denver is an example of a positive of a tough love decision, made by Sethe and many women today. A feeling of Sethe’s strength has rubbed off and helped mold Denver into an even stronger person.

“Here, in this here place, we flesh; flesh that weeps, laughs; flesh that dances on bare feet in grass. Love it. Love it hard (88).” Baby Suggs the spiritual leader of Beloved explains the moral of the book, which is love. Love is something strong enough to go to extremes for. Coming back from the dead, killing your children, yet loving. Never be afraid of a decision made out of love. Be afraid that if you didn’t make the decision out of love that it will come back to haunt you.
