Granny umm weatherall

Well one symbol in granny Weatherall is the light. This symbol appeared basically at the end of the story.This symbol was shown when she was in her death bed and she was able to see the light from Cornelia's lamp. Its is like if the light not only symbolized heaven and the good side of her but also hope. The hope in that she wouldn't be jilted by God. She was jilted by the guy she was going to get married with the first time and i guess that the light here at the end represents some sort of hope since her hope was dead when she was jilted the very first time.

This sybmbol connects to the larger view of the story because she decides to turn of the light. Its like if their openign new doors to her or well heaven and she chooses not to go. The reason why she does that is I guess only because she was jilted again and well rejected what ever came from God since he jilted her for the second time.
