This week Jonas
is getting a lot of new memories. Some
of them are wonderful and awesome and some of them are just horrible. One day
Jonas went to the Annex and saw that the Giver was sad. So Jonas asked the
giver if he could help with getting rid of that memory, the giver nodded, so he
started passing the memory of war.
"Forgive me," he said. (120)

| Why do they hidde everything from them? |
"Forgive me," he said. (120)
This
quote is making me think that Jonas must of had felt too much pain in the
memory of warfare. And by noticing
this I can infer that they don’t know anything that happens in the world, that
they are hiding everything from this community. So I think that the chief elder
makes this community have a lack of wisdom and individuality. Because how could
they have wisdom if they don’t know anything about the outside world. Also a
lot of times you get wisdom by knowing bad things that happened or sometimes
good things, but you are not going to have wisdom if toy don’t know anything of
this. So in conclusion this makes me realize that the chief elder only teaches
them what she thinks its right.

So in conclusion the more read this book the more realize that
this community is based on fear and lies. Because they are hiding all he truth
for the world to the citizens of this community, they don’t know that there is
more to see besides what they already know. So all this community of FAKE! There
is nothing real there is no pain no pleasure, they don’t have anything real. So
I just want to find out what happens at the end of this book, because I am full
of curiosity.
andre, I liked how you connected wisdom and individuality together. I think wisdom is required to take good descicions and also think individuality complements wisdom because by being unique you take different descicions and your descicions take you to learn new things
ResponderBorrarAndre, I also liked the part in which Jonas transmit the memories to baby Gabe because i seem very intresting because with the power he got he can make good thing and also he can express with the memories that are transmitting to the baby, and in my opinion the best part is that Jonas is getting out what he wanted too tell to people.
