ReplyDeleteI am running way because I know that I need to bring back the memories that I have received from the giver. I hope that when I leave I will find a society where they will have those memories and that will not all be the exact same. I plan to live and grow up with Gabriel. I will raise him with all of the same memories and make sure that he is very fond of them.

I ma running away to save Gabriel's life and to give everyone the memories. I am planning on going out to where it snows. In this place I want it to have sleds and people who love other people. I want Gabe to have grandparents and for him to experience the cold slushy snow, and have a house which has candles and fireplaces. I want Gabe to love me and for him to enjoy the fire. After I die the community would have those memories, and they would be stuck with them because there is no person ready for the job.

I'm running away from this dreadful place for it kills people when they are released. I am planning to go to Elsewhere and find a place where there is love and kindness so I will live happily and far away from this community. I hope when I am older I can get rid of the "communities" and let them live a better life.
By the way this is with Gabriel. :) -L

I am running away from this community because sameness just isn't fair, and people deserve choices. I am picturing a place that has seasons like Chicago. I hope to find people that accept outsiders, and I hope that where I end up will have snow to get the real experience of sledding.

If I were to be Jonas I would probably form a plan similar to his. I wouldn't want to see Gabriel get released only to realize I love him. I would let The Receiver because even though I cared for him, I know whats best for him. Also if The Receiver gets a release all the memories would go the people, which is what Jonas originally wanted. Before I run away I would get Gabriel and take him with me to elsewhere so he doesn't get a release. Hopefully Gabriel and I would run away to elsewhere and inform the people whats going on in Jonas's community, and find away to make it stop.

I would run from the community because I think it is unfair for all that pain that the receiver has to take. I think the memories should be spread out to everyone in the community because then they will feel pain and change there rules. When I saw that baby get released I was so sad and I think if the entire community felt those pains then they would think differently about things such as releasing.

I am running away from the community to save Gabriel and to escape a world of no emotions, colors, and free choice. I am planning to go away as far from the community as I can until I reach a place with other people. I hope to find a loving family to stay with or a town to live in. I plan to raise Gabriel and maybe the community will have choices like the Giver planned.

If I was Jonas I would have found out for sure if there was another city of some kind out there. Then I would have also learned to drive and refuel a car. So then I wouldn't have to be so primitive in which I have to trek the wilderness with a bike. Then I could keep myself warm. Also, I would transmit memories of warmth to Gabriel just in case.

I am running away from the community because they are murdering people when supposedly they are giving them a peaceful release into Elsewhere. I plan to either make it to another community or to try and make it out in the wild. I plan to either join the new community and kind of intergrate myself into it and try to keep them from turning into something similar to the community.

If I were Jonas I would run away too because the community is very screwed up and not right. The community is messed up because everyone is the same and they don't have any feelings. So Jonas ran away, and my plan if I were him I would go very very very far away and live my life with Gabriel and maybe even find a new community.

I am running away from the community because the people there are unstable. They are doing many horrible things, but they aren't smart enough to know what they are doing. It seems as if they are being mind controlled. I plan to head North until I find another civilization. If I don't find a place in less than a month, I may end up dying. If I do find a new community, I would only stay if everyone was unique. Life when everyone is the same is very bland. If I found a new place where each day you did different things, I would be very happy.

I am running away because the community has stupid rules. If I was him I would leave. The rules are just horrible. They live like some city in the year 5838. I would try to get to a normal city or try to make my own city somehow. I would hope to find shelter,food,and water. My plans would be to live a nice life,a normal life without rules.

If I were to be Jonas I would probably form a plan similar to the plan he has formed already. I wouldn't want to see Gabriel die of being released because i love him. Also if Jonas (The New Receiver) gets a release all the memories would go the people, Which is what Jonas wanted because he does't want to hide all the memories. Before I run away I would get Gabriel and take him with me to elsewhere so he doesn't get a release. Hopefully Gabriel survives and gets to somewhere with me and tell the place of what's happening to are community and find away to make it stop so no ore people get released

If I were Jonas, I would run away with Gabriel so he wouldn’t be released. Also, I would run away to experience real color and feeling instead of the little boring town. The people in the little town wouldn’t understand because they wouldn’t have memories. I would want to go anywhere else, but mainly Elsewhere. I would hope to find a new family and start off living a new life. I also would want to make new memories, and Gabriel, too.

I am running away because than my memories will fade and all the community members will get them. They will understand life more and see there are good and bad things to making choices and being different. They will all see the truth and should be in great distress and will understand more. I have no planned destination all I know is that there should be a place that I can live where there isn't any Sameness. I will keep going until I find a place like this, I also will take Gabe. I cannot stand knowing he will be released soon. In this new place I hope to find others who know emotions like love. My plans are for the future is to one day return to the community and destroy Sameness.

I am running away from the community because I don't want Father to kill Jonas. When the Giver showed me how Father "released" that baby, I realized that being "released" means being killed. I won't let Gabriel die like that. NO WAY! I plan to end up at another community and have a peaceful life with Gabriel. Maybe I will get lucky and find a spouse...At this new place, I hope to start off again on a fresh slate, a new life! I will definitely miss my family and Asher and Fiona, but this is the only way.
Jonas is running away because he wants the hole community to have the memories. with Jonas the community wont have any reviser so they will need to experience the good and bad memories. Jonas also dose not want them to release Gabriel. I think his planed destination is a place where every one has the memorizes.

I would take an approach the Giver would likely not agree with. I would have the Giver give me memories of driving and road trips and then steal a vehicle that is used for transportation between communities. I would gather as much supplies as I could and bring a bike and food with me in the vehicle. I would drive as fast as I could with Gabe until the next day or until I ran out of power to run the vehicle. Then I would sleep in the woods that day, like Jonas did, and continue of bicycle for the remainder of the journey. I would find a place to hide the vehicle so no searchers could find it. I would try and catch and make food whenever I could and have Gabriel's safety as the first priority.

If I were Jonas, I would be running away to change things in the world. The Giver said that if I go elsewhere, then all the memories I had would be accessible to the people of the community. Then they really would need the giver, and then he would have them change things. I don’t know where I am going, or how I am going to do this, but I will do it somehow.

I would leave the community because I would be curious to find out what kind of communities are existent other than their own. I think I would take the same vehicle that Jonas did because it is the simplest way. There is also already a seat on the back of the bicycle so Gabriel can be stored easily. My escape strategy would be a little different because I would leave with a backpack and more food inside. Instead of eating raw fish, I would have prepared food for a few days. Also, I would have brought Gabriels comfort animal with so that I could calm Gabriel rather than transferring memories to him.

If I was Jonas, I would be leaving the community so the community would be panicked. While they are panicked, the Giver would help them realize that they should not be living life thee way that there are. I plan to travel on bike outside of the community. I would seek new lands and try to live anywhere possible. I would earn money with work and survive however possible.

I need to escape this terrible community. I am escaping this community so everyone can have the bad memories so everyone can have the burden. I took Gabriel out of the community so he does not get killed. First I will leave at dawn when no one is awake. Second I will take a bike and smoothly leave the community.I will live in the next community and get a new job and live a better life. It will be good for me and Gabriel. I will not tell of my past a start a new life.

I am trying to escape from the community because Gabriel doesn't deserve to die. If I save him, my father won't kill him. I will be heading towards the river, and I will try to find a way to find "Elsewhere." Since I will escape from the community, I hope from my absence that the memories I've been holding will be released to the community.They will have the good memories and the bad ones, but the Giver will help them to withstand the bad memories. I hope to find a new place where everyone can have the memories. In the future, I hope we will live in a place where everyone is aware of what past Receivers know.

ReplyDeleteI'm running away from the community because of the danger in this place. If Gabriel is going to be released, I might as well rescue him and try to save his life. I remember when The Giver showed me the video of my father killing the twin, so this community is rather dangerous to live in. I would use the memories The Giver gave to me and share them with everyone else and experience color and more memories. My planned destination would be somewhere safe by the looks of it.

As Jonas I would be running away to find a world different than his current community. I am taking Gabriel to save a child from death. I have seen enough, and can't bear Gabriel, who I now feel is like a brother to me, being released. I plan to find an Elsewhere, somewhere where you can feel however you like, and see anything you want. In this new place I hope to find color that is visible to everyone, sunlight, and less rules. I hope to see freedom within every household. I hope that Gabriel and I survive the journey and reach happiness.

I'm running away because I'm tired of everything being Sameness, and that the community has to release people. I don't was them to release Gabriel, because I really care about him. They don't know what it means to be released, but I do, to be killed. I would be heartbroken if that happened to Gabriel. I would hide in the woods, and make sure that everything is hidden, so that they can't find me. I'm trying to make sure that Gabriel stays safe and nothing happens to me too. I will continue my journey until I find '' Elsewhere'' where memories are spread to everyone and you can see colors. I also want a community where people can make choices.

I am escaping to the real "elsewhere". The community I once treasured has been killing innocent people because they are too old, or not up to the standards that creates sameness. They have killed millions of people, and now they are after Gabriel, my brother. I would escape to Elswhere. Somewhere where equality is not necessary and people can see, feel, and do whatever they want, whenever they want. Somewhere with grass, hills, and animals. I would hope to first find shelter and work, so I could support Gabriel. After that, I would try to enroll in school.
I would ask the giver for a memory of running away. I would go through a forest and run and not look back. I wold get a bike with a storage too put food in I would keep riding to a new community so I don't get caught. I would ride to a new community every month. I would not take anyone with me such as gabe. Because that could cost me. Also I would ride with awareness.

The reason I am running away from the community is because of the fact that some of the newborn babies that are in the nurturing center are sometimes killed by a quick, but painful serum injected into the forehead of the newborn. The fact of babies being killed by a nurturer is bad enough, the corpse must be sen down a chute, possibly without reincarnation. The desired destination I wish to go is a certain safe house, with the Giver and I. I hope to find explanations by the Giver or any friends of the Giver who are wise enough to give legit answers, like the Giver. The plans I have for the future is to give Gabriel a good, warm, reliable home, with trustworthy people. Gabriel will be loved and never given away. I hope Jonas feels the same way.

I would steal a car and then tell the giver to give me bad memories so that I would get angry and then I would ride as fast as I could and run over anybody that tried to get in my way until the memories goo back to the community and then I would keep driving until I get to a different community that lets people have freedom to do what they want and then I would get a job to support Gabriel and I.

If I was Jonas I would want to leave to give people the memory. I think people should be able to have the right to remember the past and the good that came from it. I would also like too leave to get away from all of the rules. I think if I had to live with all of the rules I would go crazy. My planned detestation would be anywhere I could support myself and others. A place I could get food and have a home. It would be difficult but it would not be impossible. A plan for the future would be to give memories to people and help them see the unknown.

If I were Jonas, I would be running away from the community because the community is wrong. The community is wrong because no body has memories. No body has color. I think everybody should be able to feel and see what I do. I think it is very unfair that they chose one person to take all of the burden away from everybody else. I want to make everything right. My planned destination is elsewhere. I want to know what else is out there in the world. I want to experience hills, and love, and feeling. I want a place that is fair and right. In the future, I would like everybody to have memories, feelings, and color.

I am leaving do that the memories will leave me and go through out the community and people will see things like colors and will feel real feelings. People will feel love but also pain that I have been dealing with, but not as much as me because I have been dealing with it alone. I plan to find another place to seek refugee and to find shelter or another place elsewhere that there are feelings and color. I plan to keep walking with Gabriel and to find places that I can use the memories to help take me places.

I'm running away, because I hate how memories are locked away. My whole life has been a lie, and I know if I run to elsewhere, the memories will return to the people. The Giver told me there would be no other receiver to come up for his place, even if they sped up the ceremonies, it would be a long time, for the next person to take his place is a 6. I am taking Gabriel with because after I saw the newborn be killed and stored away like that, I could not stand letting that happen to Gabriel. I wanthim to live, and have precious memories and colors, with me, in Elsewhere. I am hoping elsewhere will have weather and colors and choices, and I will not have to live my lifelike this.

If I were Jonas I would want to leave because I could not share the memories with anyone and that is not fair. I also would leave to to save Gabriel's life. I would leave to a place where everyone has memory and emotion. A place where sameness does not exist. I would hope to find that there is emotion and memories. Also to stay with Gabriel. In the future I would want to get a job and make sure that everyone has memories and sameness isn't there.
After this whole experience with Gabe, why would I let him go now? I love Gabe. I can not loose someone that I love. I will not let him die! So, I need to run away with him so no one can kill him. That is why I need to run away with him. To save his life. Once we leave, we will be in a great community across the lake. With a beautiful landscape. Once we get their, Gabe's life will be in my hands. I will take care of him for the rest of my life. I hope to continue being a Receiver at the new community. I hope Gabe is safe.

I am running away from my community because I think and have feelings. I know what really happens to the elders and babies when they are released. They don't go to else where they get killed and when the nurturers kill the babies they don't know what they are doing. I can't stand that people have no feelings, they can't think, and also they can't choose for themselves. Everything is the same. bland and colorless. My planned destination is elsewhere. A place nowhere near my community where I can think, see colors, and have feelings. What I hope to find is a normal place. Where people choose who their spouse is, love their kids, and choose for themselves. In the future I want to go back to my community and change everything. So that people can choose for themselves and have all the memories good and bad.

If I was Jonas I would run away to give everyone memories. Just so that they can see what everything used to be without sameness. If everyone could see what it looked like then they would vote for it to be without sameness. But I would also run to save Gabriel from being released. I would also leave because I would like to see what it would be without sameness.
If I was Jonas, I would have had many reasons for running away from the community. First of all, other people can't feel, so they cannot experience what I feel about love and death. In addition, life in the community is so boring, so plain, so that life would not be worth living. On this trip, I plan to keep to the shadows, so I am not seen. If I am every caught, the community will never forgive me. I will also have to keep Gabriel silent by giving him my own pleasant memories. I hope to find music, color, and enjoyment in the new community. This is how I feel about a perfect life, unlike our plain and boring community.

If i was Jonas, I would be running away because I care for the community. I know that running away will be able to restore the once fair system. Then, I would try to reach a place where the original life happened. That way, I could tell everyone in the "Elsewhere" what not to do and follow after the community. I hope to advise the people the right way to live, just like the Receiver is supposed to.

If I was Jonas, I would run away from the community because I want to share the memories that I have received and where I am now I cannot share them. Everyone should have the capability to have memories and that just isn’t fair to the people. I also don’t like when a person has a baby and if that baby is lighter than the other baby it would be “Released”. I would plan to go somewhere that is a place like Earth. So I plan to find a place where everyone has memories and all babies are kept alive.

If I was Jonas I would leave the community and go off to share memories with other people outside of the community. I would share the memory's because I think everyone deserves feeling and emotion. In this other community I would make sure everyone has their own decisions and is well taken care of. Another thing I would is take Gabriel and raise him like a son. I would steal food and one of the dads bikes in the community to take Gabriel along with me so he does not die. I would have to do all of this at night so I would not get caught.

I think that Jonas made the right decision to leave with Gabe because Gabe would have died if Jonas hadn’t taken him. I think that I would have done the same thing if I were in this situation. It seems like that was the only way of getting Gabe out of release. I feel like I would be devastated if I found out that my father did that. Jonas made the right choice leaving with Gabe. I think that I would want Gabe to have a happy life in the future so he can grow up and share the memories with others as well.

I think that I would leave because I was scared. I was scared of the community and scared of what they were doing to people for the smallest mistakes. I would want freedom and to be able to live a full life unlike the people in the community. They were barely living and had practically nothing. The community was killing off people for just being people. When I left I would be looking for a place with people who were wise and free. I would want to find a place where opinions were anchorage and people had a voice. I would want to find a place that Gabriel and I could start over in a life of peace.

I think I would run away because there's nothing to do in the community and as the receiver it would be hard to talk to people because how do you talk to someone who has never felt pain or warmth, color or coldness, someone who doesn't know about death or music. I would go to where Jonas found water and saw the birds because if the book is set as far in the future as I think, then everything we know is gone, demolished by nature and covered in forest, so might as well just go to where there is water.

If I were Jonas, I would run away from the community because I don't agree with the way that they live their lives. I wouldn't want to live in a place with emotionless people who have no recollections of their actions. I would travel far and try to find another community or town, one of those with more gentle rules. I would hope to find kind people, shelter, and a home for Gabriel to live in. In the future I would hope that I would lead a happy and healthy life with the Giver and Gabriel.
