Jane Eyre didn’t have any peace and happiness in her aunt’s house. She wants to escape from there. This is the cause for her to join in that institution. So, she will be joining with the imagination that she can be happy with others there. This is the first reason for Jane to communicate with a stranger for a friendship. Moreover, she also feels lonely in that new place. In that new place she may have wanted to be a jovial person because she was not at all happy in Mrs.Reed’s house. I feel that she was in need and in search of friendship. Every normal human being needs a companion. Everyone needs someone to share our joys, sorrows, opinions and everything. She is in search of that because in Mrs.Reed’s house, she was alone. She didn’t have anyone to share her feelings and emotions. Mrs.Reed and her children dislike Jane. They always ill-treat her. Even Bessie will scold her in some circumstances. So, she feels she must need a companion to have a little peace in her life. And, I also feel that, Jane particularly selected Helen Burns because she saw her alone. Burns was reading a book. It may be an impression for Jane to talk to her. Because when she was in Mrs.Reed’s house, books were her only companions. She reads lots and lots of books. It is not only an hobby for her, but also a job that she does full-time. These are the reasons which I feel about the conversation of Jane with Helen and about Jane and Helen.
