To live in a perfect world without choices‚ feelings‚ and detail wouldn’t make it a perfect world at all. Giving up my ability to see colors‚ feel love‚ and choose a family to live somewhere artificial would be giving away a part of me. No‚ it is not worth giving up choices to live in a perfect world. Color‚ love‚ and choosing your own family would be worth nothing to give it up for a perfect world. First of all‚ giving up the ability to see the colors would be something that I would never do.

We would have to sacrifice too much.” In her novel The Giver there is a common message of sameness. It is in how people in the community dressed. It is how they looked.
