The End :O

In the novel 1984, the author, George Orwell writes about how he believes the future will be. Winston Smith, being the main character, lives in a dystopian society that is controlled by a government called "Big Brother". In chapter six, Winston is free and sits at the Chestnut Tree Cafe. He drinks a glass of Victory Gin and watches the telescreen. He now accepts everything the Party says and does. He traces "2+2=5" in the dust on the table. He remembers a moment of happiness with his mother and sister, but thinks it's a false memory. He looks up at the telescreen and sees a picture of Big Brother and makes him feel safe and happy. Winston has a memory that he thought was fake, and it was about a moment of happiness with his mother and sister, but pushes it aside because he thought it was a false memory making him feel sad. But, when you looks at the telescreen and sees a picture of Big Brother, it makes him feel happy and safe. I can relate to that by having my own memory that was good but still makes me feel sad. Then picturing, just one thing can change my whole entire mood and make me feel happy or safe. I can see a picture of my grandparents, who have passed now, and I can remember a happy memory that I shared with them. That memory still makes me feel upset because I miss them a lot as for Winston with his mother and sister. Then, I would see my friends, mostly my closest friends, that make me feel good again just by the sight of them. In conclusion, I believe the meaning of chapter six is that you cannot go against your own government. Sooner or later the government will change you, like they did to Winston in chapters four and five. Just not in the same way. That's what I believe the meaning of chapter six.
