1a) Celie at the beginning of the books was very timid and shy because she was uneducated and was insecure. However when she married Mr._____, she became afraid and after a while became complacent with the role as almost a slave. Towards the end of the book she rose up against Mr.____ and became independent and very free spirited.
1b) Contrary to Celie, Sofia was very strong and independent until she hit a man and was jailed. This made Sofia very tired and weak until she was reunited with her family.
1c) Shug was very mean in the beginning until she met Celie. Celie almost brought out the best in her and they developed a relationship.
1d) Squeak was very reliant on harpo at the beginning and later she became more independent.
2a) At the very beginning Mr._____ was mean and abusive and later over time he became nicer and nicer and eventually did something nice for Celie.
2b) Harpo starts out as a bad child who is making Celie's life miserable and later he comes to appreciate her but is still wanting his fathers approval at all costs. Finally at the end of the book he is independent of his father and is a better person.
3) This quote most likely means that God has given us all a world with many colors and different varieties and the color purple is an exotic one where it is rare to see in nature so if you don't notice it you are not appreciating it.
4) In a way Celie is starting a new life on her own with her own children and her own family free of abuse and assault. She becomes independent from her old life much like in the beginning.
5) No matter what Celie's determination never fades, even when abused she is pursuing her education and never gives up much like the poem.
