The Transmit

The Giver lays Jonas down on the bed flat on his stomach. He then presses his hands against Jonas' back. The Giver then says "I am going to transmit a memory of snow" Jonas does not know what snow is at this point. Once Jonas fully relaxed he felt himself getting colder. He shivered licking his lips. He could see his breath and the air got colder and harder to breathe. There were torrents of air crystals that the Giver called snow. Then Jonas looked down and he was sitting on something his conscious told him was a sled. He and the sled were both at the top of a hill. The sled eventually tipped forwards and his face cut through the small ice crystals. It is hard to tell what Jonas is thinking at that point in time because it is not his memory it is being transmitted by the Giver. While he is rushing down the hill on the sled he started to enjoy the easy ride down the hill with the speed of the sled propelling him forwards. When the transmission comes to a stop the Giver asks how he felt. How Jonas truly felt was surprised. I am sure that Jonas is excited to keep learning but I am sure that with all the good memories there must be bad memories also.
