Letter From Sammy

Dear Mom,
        Today I decided to quit my job at the A&P. I know this won’t make you happy; in fact, it will most likely make you upset. But I’m not sad one bit. I did this for myself. During my shift, three girls came in to the store wearing nothing but swimsuits. One in particular caught my attention. She was so beautiful and different from any other girl I have ever seen. I know you are probably thinking that this doesn’t mean much because I am a teenage boy. But this girl was different. Anyways, this girl made me realize that I am so much more than a cashier at a grocery store. She is probably out living some glamorous life while I’ve been working at this dumb store being a nobody. I now have this desire to seek out new opportunities and let go of any limits that I have previously put on myself. I want to start a new life. I know it will be hard and there will be many struggles, but that is how life goes.
Your Son,
Sammy

  1. Good! Looks like he understands the parents' view, but is also able to explain his own. You show a good grasp of the story.
