EE (Stefan’s letter) par MB

Imagine the letter Stefan leaves for his parents on the night he leaves for America /200 words/.

  • His reasons for leaving
  • what he wants, what he plans to do
  • his dreams
  • his emotions/ feelings

Burgdorf, November 2nd 1894

Dear Mother, Father, and everyone at home,

By the time you find this letter, I will already be far away—farther than any of us has ever been. I am sorry to leave without saying goodbye, but… I know you would have tried to stop me. You didn’t believe in my dreams. Lately, I have felt that I cannot stay in our town anymore. Life here will never change. People are afraid of new ideas, and they prefer to keep everything the same. But I long for change! I want to discover the world and see what I can become.

I have heard so many stories about America, the land of hope. People say it is a place where you can start from scratch and build a new life. People earn a decent living, some make a fortune! Maybe these stories are not all true, but I want to seize this opportunity and try my luck anyway. I dream of a better life in America, and I’m determined to achieve my goals. I heard that through hard work, anyone can succeed. So why not me? I’m so eager, so determined! No one can stop me from fulfilling my dreams!

I hope you can understand my choice one day.

When I arrive in America, I plan to find a job, probably an odd job, as I know it will take time to climb the social ladder. But don’t worry about me, I will be fine.

I will write to you, I promise, but it may take a long time before you get my letter.

Thank you for everything you have done for me. I will carry you in my heart as I start this new chapter of my life.

With love,
Stefan
