Morrie’s ideas raise up a lot of questions. What makes an emotion? How are we able to feel emotion? It makes me think of The Giver by Lois Lowry. In The Giver is a society where all emotion is eliminated‚ meaning that humans cannot feel emotion. It’s very interesting to compare how emotion plays a huge role in both stories. Morrie is someone who has felt sadness‚ pain‚ and grief‚ yet people in The Giver never get to experience those emotions. I think Morrie is trying to tell Mitch to detach himself

The purpose of Sgt. John Wilson is to provide information to the reader in the sense of an autobiography. Lois Simmie accomplishes Excellency in foreshadowing the event in the prologue. But not completely throwing it away until much further in the book. If this were a novel‚ the sequence of events would change completely‚ but it’s not‚ this is an autobiography‚ the order of events do not have to be precise to be followed 100% all the way through. Portrayal of Canadian history is a big deal here.
