    make now can affect us both in positive and negative ways. It’s important that we have choices to explore every possibility that we can. If we didn’t have choice, everyone would look the same, act the same, and have the same things, just like in The Giver.

One of the choices I make is the music I listen to. I love hearing different…

I believe sameness is unimportant for everyone that…
