If i could pick one thing to give to Joans it would be a heavy blanket because blankets keep you warm and he was very cold when he was climbing up the mountain i think a blanket would have been very helpful. but he could also us the blanket to carry Gabe without using his hands. He could and made less time wile climbing the mountain
The bad thing about taking as blanket would be were to put it because blanket might be heavy and heavy blankets may slow you down or may take to much room not leaving him without room for food. so this might be one of the reasons Jonas dint take a blanket because he might not have had space.

Music is an important part of my daily life, as it gives me a tune to hum in the morning, and something to think about at night. Whether its on the radio or on my I-touch music is always present. It gives me energy and it gives me rhythm especially when i listen to my favorite music alternative rock, and screamo. I especially like this music because, not only is it very lively, but it is also expressive and hard to sing.
Joneses community may not listen to music because, music sometimes imposes a bad influence to children, including drugs, violence, and other unacceptable subjects for children to know. and singing is not an acceptable carrier. that may help the comunity move past important stages. and music is not an important part of daily life, not a necessity. it may also distract u from your daily chores.

the air was humid, i could hear violent shrieking, as people rushed down red tubes. water sprinkled into my face as he sat down into a short pool of water, my heart was pounding, as i was preparing myself to take a ride, on my worst fear, a hole plummeting right to what seemed to be hell. i decided to live with the fact that i was not ready. Then my dad tell me that if i don’t i will regret it all my life and if i don’t we might as well go home because then i wont do anything for the rest of my life. then 2 years later i was faced with the same problem except it was a 5 meter jump of a ledge into a pool thanks to thins memory i ran straight for the jump as i jumped i felt so free i could do anything if i dint have that memory i might not have done that jump.
i chose this memory to give Joanas because it is a valuable lesson live life to the fullest life is short. or do it or regret it for the rest of your life. i think that he will be able to use this to get across fears that might get him somewhere in life maybe even have some fun i think that he might do things he wont regret.

According to the Shia version of the Islamic eschatology the Mahdi (مهدي Mahdī, also Mehdi; “Guided One”) is the prophesied redeemer of Islam who will stay on earth seven, nine, or nineteen years (depending on the interpretation[1]) before the coming of the day, Yaum al-Qiyamah (literally “Day of the Resurrection” or “Day of the Standing”).[2] Shia Muslims believe the Mahdi will rid the world of error, injustice and tyranny alongside Jesus.[3] The concept of Mahdi is not mentioned in the Qu’ran nor in the Sunni hadiths such as Sahih al-Bukhari.[4][5] Many orthodox Sunnī theologians accordingly question Mahdist beliefs[5], but such beliefs form a necessary part of Shīʿī doctrine.[4]
According to scholars Julie Vryhof and Mitchell Uitvlugt, the advent of Mahdi is not a universally accepted concept in Islam[2] and among those that accept the Mahdi there are basic differences among different sects of Muslims about the timing and nature of his advent and guidance. The idea of the Mahdi has been described as important to Sufi Muslims, and a “powerful and central religious idea” for Shia Muslims who believe the Mahdi is the Twelfth Imam, Muhammad al-Mahdi who will return from occultation. However, among Sunni, it “never became a formal doctrine” and is neither endorsed, nor condemned “by the consensus of Sunni Ulama.” It has “gained a strong hold on the imagination of many ordinary” self-described orthodox Sunni though, thanks to Sufi preaching.[6] Another source distinguishes between Sunni and Shia beliefs on the Mahdi saying the Sunni believe the Mahdi will be a descendant of the Prophet named Muhammad who will revive the faith, but not necessarily be connected with the end of the world, Jesus or perfection.[7]
The “hdi” of “Mahdi” refers to the Arabic root “هدی” which means “to guide”. “Mahdi” is also an Arabic name.

I think that he has a special job completely isolated from the community and that he will have to go through many changes both emotional and physical. i also think he will be completely alone and the only one doing the job but i wonder what he will have to do maybe he will be like a therapists receiving all the good things in life and all the bad. he might live a normal life without speacial rules. like having a specific family unit. and i think he will learn what an animal is. He will most likely want to quit.

As a little boy, the first thing as far as i can remember i wanted to be a farmer but my mother would not even let me take care of a pet. she said i was irresponsible.then i decided to be a zoologist because then i would be around animals a lot. but then i deicide to take a more serious approach to my future so i deicide to follow my dads foot steps as a finance director. i think i could make a good finance director because i work well with numbers. but i also work well with animals.
overall i think they might put me as a lawyer because i am very persistent in arguments. i never back dawn till my point is clear. and i almost always win my arguments.but they might not give me a proper job because i am not very firm with my decisions. i may change opinions from one minute to another. so i don’t really now what they might pick for me. But if they make me a lawyer i would agree and do the job but i would have prefered another job.

The rules in the family are very strict, they have very little choice on who is in the family, and everything is decided for them. it is organised in such a way that it is hard to live a life without getting in trouble. It is confusing the way they have comfort teddies, but they do not know what they actually are. for the parents it would be a hard decision to choose either a boy or a girl. Everything in the community is planned nothing is unexpected, this confused me because the world i live in runs on chaos. Most things are dependent on the elders, Which must be annoying since your always told what to do.

I predict that this will be a very strict life for Jonas. Because by reading the first chapter life seem very dull for Jonas so i think he will do something different that what was expected of him. The name of the title leads me to thinking that he will receive a special job. maybe someone that decides very important things and gives thing to people. but on the title i also saw an old hand giving to a young, this brings me to think that this job is past down.

In my perfect world i would not have animal testing mosquitos and guns, because they are either useless or life without them would be normal. Mosquitos give deadly deseases such as malaria. Animal testing is just cruel and hostile. I would also remove the need for oil and cole , and advancing research in renuable energy. I would also not just incourage recycleing but make it manditory. A main rule would be to veto the 3rd constitutional amendment: the right to bare arms, since guns are menaces to society. For example, in verginia tech. a school was terrorised by a mentally ill student, that was given a gun. these days gun shops would sell guns to a 4 year old.
Many things would be added to this perfect world, such as florescent rocks other then lights, to save electricity. in addition i would in force laws on fishing, to save marine life. also i would encourage people to plant trees, since they are being cut down everyday, for our furniture. to replace our wood furniture , with rock furniture, doing this would not only save trees but also reduce fires.
