The Island of Clouds.


         Searching the sea for the island with clouds Jayden became excited. He put water on his brown hair to keep it from falling to his face. His beautiful hazel eyes stared away into the sea. Finally he saw it, this was it the moment he had always dreamed of. Only 24 years old and he would be the first one to see what was behind the clouds and go back and tell the world. He tied his boat off and started to climb the cliffs. He knew that no one had lived to tell what was behind the cloud, but still he climbed. He felt like he was being watched as he went on and it got really foggy. He couldn't see anything. He knew he wasn't alone.
          He reached a flat surface and squinted his eyes to see where he was at. There was only silence. " Whose there?"  Silence. " I know someones there." Then the next thing he knew he was being pushed and he tried to fight back. The person wasn't as strong as him, he pinned the person down and all he saw were to brown eyes staring back at him. It was a girl who took his breathe away. She was beyond beautiful, he had never seen a girl like her. She looked scared he got up from her and tried to get her up but she attacked him again. He didn't want to hit her so he just held her and she stopped and just stared at him.
       " Quien eres?!" She yelled while trying to hit him again. He understood her, his mom was Colombian. He told her he didn't want to hurt her. She stared at him and then spoke English.
        "What do you want from us!?" He was surprised and took 2 steps back letting her go gently.
        " I'm here to discover whats behind the Island of Clouds but who are you?"
        "There's nothing to know get out now." Silence filled the air and he just stared, stared at the beauty she had. He tried talking to her but she just wanted him to leave. It felt like forever and all she would scream was leave so he was about to turn around and just wander off but she caught his hand.
        " Are you hear to harm us?" Harm you? Why would I hurt?" "Because everyone who comes here tries to hurt us!" " No I promise you I didn't come for that I just wanted to see what made this place so special but dangerous."
       She was still holding his hand she dropped it and told him to follow her. He asked where they were going she wouldn't answer. She finally stopped in front of bushes and told him to not be scared. He followed her in and what he saw he couldn't believe. People had wings on them and were flying! Everything seemed so beautiful and everything seemed so familiar to him.
       "What are they?" "They're fairies, fairies have been around for centuries but we keep hidden because the outside world doesn't accept us. They try to experiment on us and we don't want that so we hide." He didn't know what to say.  "What do you do with the people that come to hurt you? And how come you don't have wings?" She explained that they just locked them away so they wouldn't go off and tell people. And that fairies could hide their wings if they wanted to it just took a lot out of them.
        "I'm one of the protectors. I make sure nobody comes in who will hurt us. But you seem so familiar.. like the son the queen and king had 24 years ago but someone had took him from them."
He didn't know what to say. A few years ago before his mom died of cancer she told him that some guy had given him to her  and she fell in love and kept him. This couldn't be true though? It seemed impossible that he was a son of fairies. But as soon as he saw them he knew, they all knew that it was true.
          He found love and his family. Everything that was taken away when he was little was now here with him. So did he leave to be the first to come back from the island or did her stay to be with the people who were taken from him and knew nothing about? He decided to stay and live his life where he belonged and soon after he got his wings. The magic surrounding the Island gave it to him. He was home now. He found what he was looking for. Love and Family.

What does it mean?

      I had the worst dream of my life a couple of weeks ago. I was looking for my parents and I couldn't find them. I kept asking people nobody would answer me. I was getting scared I was screaming and nobody would say anything to me. I was gasping for air, everything felt so weird. It felt like I had lost them but I didn't want to believe that. My world was fallling apart and I yelled to the top of my lungs but they weren't coming. Tears started rolling down my cheeks and then I woke up crying and breathing hard. Worst dream of my life. It wasn't a dream it was a nightmare!

      Searching for what this dream meant I found this website : http://www.dreammoods.com/dreaminformation/dreamtypes/nightmares.htm
I learned that dreaming about this meant that people who are more sensitive and who are avioding problems and this dream wants to get you to realize it. I have been pushing away my parents because I feel really distant from them but I would never want to loose them in that way. Even though we fight so much I love them so much. I think the dream was trying to tell , to appreciate them and spend more time with them because nothing lasts forever.

     In The Giver there's a baby named Gabriel who is going to be released because he dosn't fit in with what the community whats of him. The community wants to control everything and when something or someone is different they are released. The baby isn't exposed yet to how the community so he's the hope of change to Jonas. Jonas is the only one who knows how things are because he was chosen as the Giver he knows everything now. To him everything is wrong now and he doesn't like it at all he hates and wants to change it. Jonas doesn't want Gabriel to be released for being different he connected with the baby and now this baby gives him hope and the strength.
