she called him recieve of memory and smiled
To lose The giver
the giver is the old receiver who is now giving the memories to Jonas the new receiver
The main character in "The Giver" by Lois Lowry is a boy named Jonas. He is chosen to be the Receiver of Memories in his community and learns about the true history of the society and the role of the Giver.
The Giver wanted Jonas to call him the Giver. This may sound odd but when the Giver said this he was still called the receiver. The Giver asked him to call him the Giver because he was no longer the receiver, therefore it was not appropriate to call him receiver any longer.
The Giver would say that Jonas had escaped to Elsewhere, which suggests that he had left the community to start a new life beyond its limits. The Giver would likely emphasize the freedom and potential for growth that Jonas now had outside of their controlled society.
The Giver believes Jonas is a good receiver because he displays qualities like sensitivity, courage, and openness to new experiences. Jonas has shown potential to understand complex emotions and memories, making him well-suited for the responsibilities of being the Receiver of Memory.
Jonas begins to see things in color because he has received memories from the Giver that have awakened his ability to perceive color. This ability was previously suppressed in the society he lives in, where everything is seen in black and white to maintain control and conformity.
He realizes after spending time with the Giver that they know nothing of feelings or love or how the world really should be. That's why he asks his parents...."Do you love me" and he gets scolded. They have no concept of feelings. Before: Jonas' parents treated him like an everyday son--- dependent. (like most of us no) Now: Jonas' parents treat Jonas with great respect. Also, since Jonas is an adult, he can basically do whatever he wants, unlike when he was 11
The old receiver felt relieved and freed of the burden of carrying that memory. He was happy that Jonas was now able to share the pain and knowledge of that memory with him.
Rosemary is The Giver's daughter who wanted to be released, or sent to "Elsewhere. Then that's where all the pieces come together when it said that the previous Receiver wanted to die so she injected herself and was sent to Elsewhere which you will find out is really heaven. That's why the Giver still remembered the kiss when she left that day. He wants to go and be with her in heaven.
Jonas wonders about the meaning of love, family, and the complexities of the world outside of the community. He is curious about the memories and emotions he experiences and how they compare to the sterile and regulated life he lives in the community.
People begin to treat Jonas with more respect and awe, viewing him as a wise and special individual with unique knowledge. They may also become more cautious around him, recognizing his important role in the community. Some may distance themselves from him out of fear or feelings of inferiority.
