![]() Although his memories disturb him, Thomas is only able to save the Gladers by using these memories to find a way out of the Maze. In contrast to Alby, Thomas goes through the Changing on purpose in order to get his memories back. Since Alby was known for his effective leadership, his memories actually cause him to lose the most notable aspect of his identity. In the most extreme case, Alby loses his ability to lead after getting some of his memories back. These memories are so painful that most Gladers who go through the Changing refuse to discuss the memories they’ve recovered. During the Changing, Gladers have flashes of memories from their old life. Unlike Thomas’ desire to uncover his memories, some characters wish to further repress their memories of life before the Glade. As such, some of Gladers distrust Thomas, but the group ultimately accepts him because he proves himself to be a loyal and brave addition to their society. For example, Thomas learns that before arriving in the Glade, he knowingly helped design the Maze. Moreover, the novel suggests that people are defined by their actions in the present rather than their past actions. Thus, the novel suggests that personal relationships are so ingrained in our identities that they become part of who we are and cannot be forgotten. Later, we learn that they had a very close friendship before their memories were erased. ![]() For example, Thomas has a deep almost instinctual feeling that he should trust Teresa even though he doesn’t remember her. Instead, their memories, buried deep within their minds, may still be determining their feelings and behaviors. In the end, the novel suggests that none of the boys have truly lost their memories. Thomas wonders if, were he a criminal before arriving, would that mean that he is an essentially violent or immoral person. For example, early in the novel, Thomas mistakenly believes that the Glade is a prison and that all the Gladers are criminals. During his struggle to discover his identity, Thomas questions whether people are the sum total of their memories and past experiences or if we have essential natures that exist regardless of our experiences. As such, recovering his memories becomes one of his main goals. Without these memories, Thomas loses his sense of self.
