I found there are reflections of Charlotte’s personal life and obstacles that she encountered. During that period of time, Bronte and her sisters were expected to live as all women in the society live. They were Just like the situation that Jane Eyre encountered in the book. She and her sisters are all passionate about writing; they understood that it was rare for women to express their opinion in public, so they used masculine names to publish their pieces. Although the reality did not provide both Bronte and Jane Eyre with choices, they tried their best to find ways to overcome these challenges and resistant against the societal flow.
Also, Bronte’s brother had relationship with his boss’s wife reflected Rochester’s marriage in the book as well. Her brother got fired because of the affair whereas Jane Eyre chose to leave Rochester and refused to run away with him. This showed that Bronte disagree with her brother’s behavior and showed it in the book. Although Jane loves Rochester very much, she still holds her dignity and leave him. I believe it is really difficult for her to make this decision, but she had to make that choice. Bronte’s brother always lives his life as he likes without having any considerations for his family and other people. Sometimes, lack of considerations or critical thinking can bring more happiness. However, we should always remember that we are humans and we are social animals. We can not live without considering other people at our community.
