No one can see colors let alone understand the meaning of the word therefore they would understand the transaction from black and white to color if it happened to them. When Jonas first sees color it is the color red. Him and Asher were tossing an apple around for recreation and he saw the apple change in mid-air. He did not understand the change and repeatedly tried to see it again. When this did not work he became frustrated and soon gave up. Other few occurrences happened along the way where he saw this change and it wasnt until the Giver told him that he was seeing a thing called color and he soon would identify each of them by name. In this situation I believe I would be frightened and unable to describe this experience. Color would become a vivid and majestic pleasure for my sight.Seeing Color for the 1st TimeBack to Room 2Name of MuseumVIRTUAL MUSEUM OF NATIVE AMERICAN WOMENDAILY LIFEFAMOUS WOMENMATRILINEAL TRIBESCREATION MYTHSCURATOR INFORMATIONReasons and Understanding

If he had been caught outside of his house after hours he would have been removed from his position as the New Receiver of Memory and perhaps even released by death of the community completely. In my opinion Jonas made the right decision by taking Gabe and showing him the right way to live life.Risk #1Back to Room 4Name of MuseumVIRTUAL MUSEUM OF NATIVE AMERICAN WOMENDAILY LIFEFAMOUS WOMENMATRILINEAL TRIBESCREATION MYTHSCURATOR INFORMATIONHaving light eyes in the community was a rare occurrence and was rude to mention when upon the topic of discussing eyes. It meant that there was a separation from sameness by someones looks. In the book, The Giver, Jonas and few others have light eyes. The girl from the sevens, the newborn Gabriel, Jonas, and the Giver all have light colored eyes. There eyes are actually a type of blue but since the community members can not see in color all they can tell is that their eyes are different. Jonas was surprised that Gabe could receive the memories that he gave him. The theory was that the people with light colored eyes might have been born with a gift apart from the other community members. ~Light Eyes~Back to Room 3Name of MuseumVIRTUAL MUSEUM OF NATIVE AMERICAN WOMENDAILY LIFEFAMOUS WOMENMATRILINEAL TRIBESCREATION MYTHSCURATOR INFORMATIONGabe was a newborn that was unlike the others in ways of his appearance and of his actions. Jonass father was a nurturer at the nurturing center and offered to take Gabe into their home for a couple of months so that he would become more stable and be ready for his 1 year ceremony. As the months went on Jonas seemed to be the only one that could calm him down. At night he would secretly send memories of happiness, exhaustion, and calmness. He told no one of this giving of memory and proceeded to have Gabriel stay in his room at night. One night when he had spent the night with the Giver (going over their plan for his departed) he came home to find out that the would be releasing (killing) baby Gabe because of his lack of headway made in the past couple of months. Jonas decided that he must save Gabe so that they could both escape the community and live. In this situation I would have done the same thing in taking Gabe.Newborn: GabeBack to Room 2Name of MuseumVIRTUAL MUSEUM OF NATIVE AMERICAN WOMENDAILY LIFEFAMOUS WOMENMATRILINEAL TRIBESCREATION MYTHSCURATOR INFORMATIONWhile Jonas and Gabe were on the run they were slowed down by weakness and harsh weather. They took the risk of dying by starvation and freezing to death because they were lacking in the appropriate dress for time of the year. Also when Jonas found the sled on the hill he took the chance of wrecking especially with Gabriel in his arms. He had only ridden on one once and it was in a dream or received memory.
