A thought about A Doll's House that continuously goes through my mind is why exactly Nora left Torvald. But then I found the best quote that I have experienced during this blogging process, the author is unknown, but it is truly fantastic.
Never let the hand you hold, hold you down.
Can you say brain blast? This pieced together the puzzle in my mind, because she was getting held down by Torvald. She could never be who she wanted to be, nor who he wanted her to be; they were two completely different personalities. But when Nora came into reality, that Torvald was bringing her down, holding her back and she needed to move on. A theme that I constantly bring up is the miracle of miracles. Maybe this huge miracle has many parts to it and the ability to move forward is one of them. That is what Nora finally realizes and she makes the decision not to be brought down any longer. Packing up and leaving her misery behind was the best thing for her to do.
