The beloved wants to be everything. We sing, dance, dissect, we have flowers and all this in the hope that someone will love us. Have you ever noticed that the trees do exactly the same thing we make to draw attention to each other? Except they don't go.
The quote from Alice Walker's "The Color Purple" reflects the longing for love and connection that many experience. It highlights the various ways in which people seek affection, through acts of creativity and beauty such as singing, dancing, and giving flowers. These actions are driven by the desire for recognition and validation from others in a world where love is the ultimate goal.
