            The road of slavery for Beloved was something that hurt her mentally as well as spiritually. Her heart burned for  Sethe, escaping slaver spirituality was her defining moment to break free from the strongest grip of her slave master. In the book Beloved, she had suffered from pain, and heartache, she had to watch people die in the eyes of Sethe. In order for a person to survive 
one must find hope in god, to win the battle of slavery. “Where are the men without skin” (254). Forced to be slaves and to be treated lower than animals. Slave master were contempt about how they treated blacks, their minds were felt with anger. Blacks didn't have a say in what they can eat or what they can achieve in life. As slavery became force upon by whites, blacks started to deteriorate from starvation which eventually led to death.” The loss of two niggers”(267).

As a generation of blacks begin to die so did the young children; slave masters felt they were the higher superior in blacks life. Slave master had no mercy for children slaves, therefore consequentially diminished blacks as human. For beloved a spirit that had trouble of finding her place for love, her reflecting in the water showed her pain from slavery. Beloved had saw the dark, but wanted the light that shined above the hills just like other young children. The passion in her soul was present, for her to go further and touch dreams; she needed to overcome her past. “Chewing laughter to swallow her all the way” (323). Facing the truth was brave; she understood why her spirit felt lost.  Because she wanted to be loved.  She had never felt that before, and could not understand why She wasn't  held, loved, and cared for.  She wouldn’t  know how to embrace that, the thought of I24 stayed present in her soul.  “Touch me on the inside part” (311). Beloved wanted her spirit to be lifted, into a place where she could breath. The lonely child continued to search for the face that brought love to her underwater. As she begin to think how life could be if she had love instantly, reality had sunk  in her mind while underwater.  Reaching out to grab on to some aspect of life ,by now every nightmare she has had is being brought to life.

          Loneliness in her head started to come forth, her light wasn’t coming towards her way the dark  pain emerge.  Her love was gone on a path that was unclear, and felt out of her reach. Love was what she needed to beat the unpleasant dream. The spirit still felt unpleasant, occasionally her heart would detach from the spirit and wonder to Pall D. She would want to take control over a situation by using her heart. She just wanted love to grow in inside her.

The soul of beloved wander around, broken from the heartache Soul trapped in a world where no love can be cited for her. Her spirit was driven in search of love, as the face in the water repaired, the search for love continued to make a mark on someone.  Her soul would not move forward without obtaining love, what she wasn’t aware of was people didn’t have no love for her.

The footprints that many shoes fit, was the walk of slavery from child to an adult lives were shattered. Innocent babies were harmed treated like rag dogs, beloved was a spirit, that was once a human being and treated like animal, now a spirit in search of love from a human being. Now the problems are that she cannot be touch, heard, and seen.  Though she cannot do either of them things she continues to dream. The fight for love kept her breathing, even as a spirit.

Now the awake of her spirit is shaken by the by the water in the memory of footprints that cannot be forgotten. In a time where pain had continued to surface, where beloved  could only dream love. Her dream would not come true, because her heart wouldn't let her  believe. Waiting to be loved drove her soul away to another place. her dreams seemed to be very real on the inside, to be loved  and understood. In reality the world doesn't care about how much love you have, the only thing the world care about is where you stand.
Beloved wanted be loved, and hugged and cared for, weather  it was her family are not, all she wanted was love.
