The Giver Equality

Fault and redemption. What do these two words really do in our lives? Do they give us another chance or are they just concepts that we want to follow? In the world we live in, one fault can often make or break something in our lives, but when granted with redemption, we don’t always take it as seriously as needed and soon our fault becomes someone else’s pride. Sir Gawain’s faults can be a constant reminder of the mistakes we all make as humans along with the quote, “It is clear then that there can be no redemption without fault, just as one is unable to return from exile without first being sent into one.

This person will face shame, struggle with worthiness, being authentic, and owning who they are. I feel very strongly about these challenges and believe that they can consume someone’s life. According to Brene Brown’s novel, The Gifts of Imperfection: Let Go of Who You Think You’re Supposed to Be and Embrace Who You Are, having this combination is perfectly normal; however, we can improve ourselves everyday to embrace who we are: Imperfectly Perfect Humans. To begin, I want to talk about owning your story and shame. Growing up, I felt that I had a fairly good life.

This particular quote shows that people of the town are really not willing to speak up for the discrimination until they have been in that exact same situation.  This is also an example of empathy applied in a way to convince the world with the hiding lies for good.   We all have done this in some way in our lives for good. This helps in the broadening of the description, which allows the reader to emotionally and mentally connect with character by reading about the expressed

Overall, I think bystanders play an important role in our society. Everyone is a bystander at some point in their lives; but, it is up to them whether they want to be the person who saw it or the person who actually did something to

Now conformity is said to be “the world’s most common but dangerous psychological disorder”. To be a conformist, you listen to society, you follow society’s demands, and you crave society’s attention. But to be a nonconformist, you do the opposite. You are an independent individual: “To be human is to be an individual human, with individual tastes, talents, values, and dreams” (Feys 1). Society takes all this away from you even though you want to be your unique self.

People tend to concentrate on the negative aspects of life and relationships because society pressures us to always be working towards or on something. The author best summarized our societal standards by stating “the never-ending search for perfection” is the reason people have become dissatisfied with their love life (Marano Estroff, Hara, 2010). Another cultural phenomenon is the value of autonomy. We use our independence as a measurement of how fulfilling our life is based on the number of choices available. Lots of choices raise our expectations and perceptions of

It's the loneliness of it. Memories need to be shared”(154).This quote is significant because it shows how memories are important. For example, they can be life lessons to help you make better choices or provide you with "experience" you need to make your choices. Finally, at the end of the novel, it shows the theme of the importance of memory. The importance of memory is one of the most important themes in The Giver.

At first The Giver warns Jonas that this process of receiving memories “will be painful”(Lowery 85). This pain comes in the form of both the joyful and the terrifying memories. The positive memories that he receives cause him pain because they make him see how much happier the people in his community could be. “Jonas’s realizations about the constraints of this rigidly organized life come gradually", but they begin to weigh on him (Chamberlain). Everytime he learns something new about the past he is overcome by the will to share all of his mental experiences with the rest of the population, but he knows he is not able to do this.

So this legend may not be a famous New York Times novel, but it taught a profound amount

And as time goes by, we tend subconsciously know that we have the excuse of only being human, we tend to neglect exactly how we have gotten ourselves into a situation that has negatively impacted our life with our significant others’. The troubles that are faced require a variety of responsibilities that couples generally need to apply to their problems in order to come out on top of a bad situation. In doing so, it allows us to feel

In the world we live in, equality has always been a foreign concept. On an everyday basis, people are being assessed on things that make them distinctive or unique, and there is no such thing as two people being equal. There has never been a time in history where people came together as one immense community. We have always and will continue to be broken up into groups based on the gender stated on our birth certificates, the color of our skin, the religion we practice, and countless different factors. One of the most evident factors of inequality is demonstrated through racism based on the color of one's skin.
