Dear giver,

How are you doing? And how is the community doing. I have a few questions about all that has happened so far. Did it all work out? I mean did you create peace and did they turn to you in their time of need. Can people see color and did they receive all the happy memories you gave me along with the memories of pain and the feeling of Love. Is it all different and do they have feelings now. What about the reality of realese. Did it change and is there a new system of justice? But what I really want to know is how my family is doing? How does my dad feel? I mean if it worked out knowing that he killed a helpless baby? I mean all those feelings that they all have. And my mom does she make different decisions not just because they broke a teensy rule but for what is right and a perfect crime. And I might not have told you this but I took the new born Gabe. Because after I saw the reality of release. After seeing what my father did and picturing him doing that to gabe I just couldn't let him do that. He just couldn't do that to a child. So I had to take him. I left because it just couldn't work out. The cruelty of it all was sickening. So that is why I left and took the newborn.

But enough about me how is asher. Is his training doing well as the directer of recreation? And Fiona how is she? Does she still care for the old and she stopped her traning in "the art of release?" Also did you explain everything to the community or did you leave some of the story out. And do my parents know secretly or did you really say I fell into the river. And how about the memories. Did you get some of them back aswell? What really happened after I left? How did you solve it all? But my other question is about lily? Is she the same as always or different since I left? How did everyone react to the fact that I fell in? Did they question how since I am a good swimmer so I could have swam back to shore.

There is a ton I want to ask you about. But how is everyone in general? Has the community seen the error in their ways? Or are they still following the old rule of release and sameness? I want to know about it all! But I know I can't. So I hope that every thing worked out? I also hope that all is well on your side. This place I came to was very interesting. I saw a sled and it was the exact same as the first memory you ever gave me and there was your favorite!! The memory of love and christmas. It was amazing just amazing. I hope that you can come because it just has that special feeling.

Love,

Jonas

1. Would you want your future to be decided by others ? Why or Why not? In the givers community everything is perfect. There is no war, theft or sadness. Everything is the same and everyone is happy. There are no problems and everything is very organized. They have what you would say the perfect world. But the price is they have no choice. Not like not having freedom but not having freedom of choice and diversity. From birth they are put into their proper age group organized and given to a selected family unit. Then they become a two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven and tweleve. From then on age doesn't matter anymore. And twelve is when they have their big day and are assigned the perfect job for them that has their characteristics and that they show interest in. So every thing is ladida, until you get released. And they start to rule you with and Iron fist.


They would then have full control. It would be like your the puppet and they're the puppet master. It wouldn't be nice and I wouldn't want that to happen. Because my future is mine to chose and to shape. It is my decision and I don't want anyone to take that freedom of choice from me. Because that choice would decide who I am because what if they make that wrong decision? If that is the path fate has chosen for me I have something to say about that. I just don't want it to happen because it takes what I want away. Maybe they make the perfect choice and I make the wrong one I will be the judge of that because people change and one day everyone is going to regret their decision but anyways its mine nomatter how imperfect. It is just my choice and I don't want to loose the freedom of choice to anyone. My destiny is mine and nobody can control it but me. My future is really something I want to think about. I am not like some people who already know what they want to be. I want to find that out and leave it to the end because I can't wait to see if left or right north or south east or west. I just have to find that out.

So my answer is definetly no. I don't want my future to be decided by others because that is the big choice you wait for all your life. Why would I let someone else make it for me? So I think that it is sad they don't go their own way but in their world they make perfect decisions. For one thing you never know when someone changes. Because they are perfect choices but freedom of choice is one thing that I don't want to loose because once it is gone it isn't coming back.
