The Best Thing about Memories, is Making them !

People CHANGE ...Memories don`t

"Ash!" he called, spotting his friend near the rows of bicycles. "Ride back with me?" 
"Sure." Asher smiled, his usual smile, friendly and familiar. But Jonas felt a moment of hesitation from his friend, an uncertainity.  

As mentioned before, Jonas lives in a society thats under CONTROL. Further into the book we get to now that Jonas is the new reciever of memories. What most captured my attention is how Jonas reacts towards a new rule he must follow or that he has acces to. Even dough he cant take advantage of it. I see it interesting because theres things that at first doesnt seem interesting but when Jonas goes deeper into the details and explaining what they realy mean,they are really worth some attention and furthermore, a bit of thinking beyond.



Everything changes in some way we cant see... 

Going back to what is hapening, the Giver is introduced to Jonas by a woman who unlocked the doors that gave path to were the old reciever of memories was. This surprised Jonas because no door in the commuinity was allowed to be locked. The second thing that impacted Jonas was the hundreds, thousands of books that there were in ther room.After a long discussion between The Giver and Jonas , The Giver has already given Jonas the memories of snow and sunburn. Sunburn was very painfull
for Jonas, he couldnt get the word out of it 
and he g ts fustraded. 

Once again, there was just a moment in wich things werent quite the same, werent quite as they had always been through the long friendship. Perhaps he had imagined it. Things coldnt change, with Asher. 

When I started reading this quote, I stared thinking about how friendship might change the course of things. How do things we do reflect the affectness and love we have towards our friends, and it is the same what they feel for us, than what we feel for them? What mostly made me think deeeper into this quopte, is that I pictured myself in Jonas situation. He is in a new world, and he has so many new things to get used to, and the only thing he has, from scince he has memories, is Asher. He expects nothing to change, but now he knows everything is different, and that it is not going to be us it was before. 

You are now probably thinking, why is rule number eight there again. I put it there because I considere it of so much importance through out the entire book. Theres so much perspectives from what we can see this phrase. Evendough theres only three words in it, there are like a thosands thoughts that right know go to my head, only by reading those. In this phrase I want to go back to todays class discussion becuase; remembrer the question, what is the difference between honor and power? I think that in this quote, we have a great example for both. From this rule, Jonas could take advantage in so many ways that cold take him to have so much power. But he could also dont do a big deal and have great honor for what he controled and that its going to bennefit not only him, also others, his community. 



So a question for you...

 Which one is more impoirtant, HONOR or  

POWER ?
