The children know how to let their emotions flow and as soon as the emotion is dealt with, they let the feelings go. As life becomes much complicated, people tend to depart how to let thing flow and then let them go.The older we get, the more we hold in the emotional baggage, hold ourselves to be possessed by them. Emily Brontes Wuthering Heights tells a very good story of the consequences of holding emotions in without ever releasing them. The characters in the book are so deeply enveloped into their emotions that they create pri male childs for their minds. Their own acts of hate and unkindness create these prisons prisons that wont let them draw from their misery.From a very early age, the seeds of hatred are progr amted into Hindley.

Heathcliff, on the other hand, was told to go back home. While Catherine learned the ways of the rich, Heathcliff started his plan to seek strike back.One of the interesting aspects of the book is the fact that Heathcliff started off with the normal romantic hero. He was the orphan child, destined to rise above the standards. However, Bronte doesnt allow Heathcliff to transcend above his position in life. Throughout the novel, Heathcliff commits act of unclouded evil that is very hard for the reader to believe. He starts by violent death a few dogs and goes on to create even more havoc. He tortures Isabella by testing her undying love for him. He even goes on to plan the use of his own child to seek revenge on his arch nemesis, Edgar Linton.All the while, the one thing that caused all of his pain, all of his misery, neer stopped haunting him.
