He helps the community a lot through volunteer work.
Well, honey, in "The Giver," the giver treats Jonas like a special snowflake, giving him all the juicy deets about the real world while keeping everyone else in the dark. It's like a twisted game of truth or dare, but with more emotional baggage and less fun. Basically, Jonas gets the VIP treatment while everyone else is stuck in the cheap seats.
Jonas has pale eyes unlike most of the other people in the community.
Jonas feels the sunshine which is so nice and warm but the sun burns even harder on his skin and he wants it to stop. That is the first physical pain.
No one, except Jonas and the Giver, can actually feel emotions, like love and hate and pain.
The Giver believes Jonas will gain wisdom faster than he did because Jonas exhibits qualities like empathy, courage, and openness to learning that the Giver didn't have at the same age. Jonas also has a unique ability to receive memories, which allows him to learn from experiences in a more direct way.
Jonas received the sunshine memory from The Giver through the process of "transferring." The Giver transmitted the memory to Jonas by placing his hands on Jonas's bare back. Jonas then experienced the memory as if it were his own.
The Giver gives memories to the main character, Jonas, to help him understand the truth about their society and the world outside. Through these memories, Jonas learns about love, pain, and the complexities of life that have been hidden from the community.
The Giver transmits memories of wisdom, pain, joy, and adventure to help guide and prepare Jonas for his journey. These memories provide Jonas with knowledge and empathy to navigate the challenges he will face.
Jonas and the Giver watched a video of Jonas’s father performing a release. Jonas felt that it wasn't fair to live like that. The Giver came up with a plan to give people memories. When they give the people the memories they will feel pain. When people know the past they will be smarter about knowing life.
