Answer 2

In The Awakening - with the help of google I found the passage.

Edna always felt different from the people that surrounded, suggested through the flashbacks of Edna. The narrator mentions here in uhm.. chapter 7? - "Even as a child, she had lived her own small life within herself" this suggests that Edna's action and feeling in the present weren't new but old feelings. Further, Edna married Leonce "on accident." As she is wandering out to sea in the novel, she is reminded of her feelings from childhood by remembering about the night of swimming.

"She went on and on. she remembered the night she was far out and recalled the terror that seized her at the fear of being unable to reign the shore. She did not look back now, but went on and on, thinking of the blue-grass meadow that she had traversed when a little child, believing that it had no beginning and no end."
