second book--- gather together in my name

In the second book, Gather Together in My Name, by Maya Angelou is a different book from my first one. her first novel was a book of advice in life situations. Then, this one is a story about her life at the age of seventeen, getting a job and not being able too cook because her stepfather feels that black women cook long enough for white people and they should not cook for them again. Maya is trying to tell her stepfather that she needs the money to take care of her son, and job is better than having no job.

Maya Angelou

In the book I wouldnt take nothing for my journey now, I read a chapters about jealously.

Jealously...
---"A jealousy lover can be a little amusing. in fact, jealousy made evident in a room filled with people can be an outright intoxicant to everyone,includig the lovers. it must be remembered, however, that jealousy in romance is like salt in food. A little pleasure and , under certain circumstances, can be life-threatening." (129)
My thought about this passage, Ms. Maya speaks on relationship in a different manor.
And this piece of passage made so much sense. The style came so easy and it flows.
