In the movie " Everything is Illuminated " Jonathan is landing in the location he searched for, a wall of memories. All neatly arranged in tiny bags are the objects of the past on display.
An immense collection of ideas that gave his aunt a purpose, for herself, that in fact her family members where still there, all of them, there was the proof they had existed.
For Jonathan in his journey of searching for his past it was a amazing experience and for me as well watching the movie as a story of illumination.
Finally Jonathan is told upon being given a ring from his grand-mother, that he exists to find this very ring.
I realized that my memories were hidden seemingly within and that by seeing all these past episodes on the wall it would be an instant glance and recognition, an awakening, and happy recognition that all is well the past is over and freedom is a reality.
Atonement is Healing and seeing all memories as the accomplished journey that never was.
An empty storehouse, with an open door, holds all your shreds of memories and dreams.
Yet if you are the dreamer, you perceive this much at least: That you have caused the dream, and can accept another dream as well. But for this change in content of the dream, it must be realized that it is you who dreamed the dreaming that you do not like.
It is but an effect that you have caused, and you would not be cause of this effect. In dreams of murder and attack are you the victim in a dying body slain.
But in forgiving dreams is no one asked to be the victim and the sufferer. These are the happy dreams the miracle exchanges for your own. It does not ask you make another; only that you see you made the one you would exchange for this.(chapter 28)
