Dear Asher

This is Jonas i was in your community and left i hope that you have received the memories safely. And the Community has not reached complete chaos I needed to leave because the community was not controlled by the people and having to see my father kill a child and to kill Gabe the next morning and just didn't want anyone to do that especially my father. Asher i want you to keep this letter between you and I because i don't want the community to look for me.

Asher your are the only one i trust because i know your ability of lying to people for example how you lied to the instructor countless times without getting punished i want you to do the same thing if any one a you what is in the letter tell them it is an essay or anything.

Also send me back a letter or anything about what happening in the community and how has it changed I want to tell you about my new community but i have to get a letter back from you showing that you will not tell any one .

I have picked Jakob's blog to comment on. On Jakob's first blog he gave a significant amount of support to what he was saying, by writing page numbers and giving the reader the connection with him and Jones and there similarity's. A piece of advice, don't write about that you have ADHD just write that Jones takes pills also do I you don't have to give that much information.

Your second blogpost had allot of evidence, even do it was a very short paragraph. It had quotes and page numbers on the book and it also showed, your point of view to what you think about lying but my only suggestion is that you redo it and don't delete words just add more to what you have so that you can have a good grade.

Overall I think Jakob you did a good job in your blog posts.

2. Why does Jonas find the instruction about lying so disturbing?


Why Jones might find this disturbing is because of trust, and what will happen if he lies and the community finds out. The result of what will happen is that the communities trust with Jones will decrease, and Jones would be ignored by everyone in his community. But "i am not sure about how Asher would fell" Because he lies all the time even to teachers, Asher might not care and would still be friends with Jones. Possibly Jones might manipulate lying and used it as his benefit as a receiver of dreams.

Jones might also be disturbed because he might get obsess with the privilege, of lying and start lying to this action, might make he community want to release him. Because he might be a role model to other kids, who will soon join the ceremony of twelve, and the parents from the family unit would not like Jones making there kids lie at there young age and would lead to them lying recklessly to the point when they also would be released

I think Jones will not use the privilege of lying often, this or probably he would see how lying get's addicting either way the book gives a lot of description.

I belong to a nuclear family. I am the youngest in my family. I was born in America and coming from my parents roots (Nigeria). I think that the majority of people in both America and Nigeria are allowed to decide what they want to be. My family cares a lot about me and also they care about my future and my success in getting a job.They told me to get a job that will be fun and also in a high income.

Some people think that the place you were born will decide your future it takes a person to overcome adversity. For instance, the next king of England was trained for royalty since young to be a king and he has no choice but to face his destiny as the future king. In my opinion, I don't want somebody to decide my future because I want to decide my future and success myself. Being a positive person, I wake up looking forward to a bright challenging day with plenty stored for my future. I think that my future has already well planned by dividing them into long term and short term

I think my life will not be decided by anyone only me, so i plan my life how i want and nobody can stop that.
