In chapter 16, Jonas asks The Giver about his favorite memory. Then The Giver gives it to Jonas. The memory was about Christmas and love in a family. It took place at a present day house, and in the house there was a Christmas tree and lots of family and friends. Jonas could feel the joy at first sight. He knew that the family structure was different. The Old were living together in the same house unlike their community where the Old were kept in the House of Old. After he got out of the memory, he asked The Giver what the word for the whole memory was and The Giver told him that it was love. Jonas didn't know what it meant, but he thought it felt great.
"To bad no one else knew what the feeling of love meant" Jonas thought to himself.
Jonas wanted his community to be like the one in the memory. He really wanted there to be love within everyone.
Do u think everyone should be loved and that everyone should have love within them?
When he got home that evening, he asked his parents if they loved him. Of course no one in the community knew what the word love meant, except for The Giver and himself, and they said no and told him to use precise language. His parents were not very found of him using the word love because they thought that it wasn't a word.
What do you think about or feel when you think about love?
