Work: A Story of Experience
I mean that, being of age, Im going to take care of myself, and not be a burden any longer. Uncle wishes me out of the way; thinks I ought to go, and, sooner or later, will tell me so. I dont intend to wait for that, but, like the people in fairy tales, travel away into the world and seek my fortune. I know I can find it. Christie emphasized her speech by energetic demonstrations in the bread-trough, kneading the dough as if it was her destiny, and she was shaping it to suit herself; while Aunt Betsey stood listening, with uplifted pie-fork, and as much astonishment as her placid face was capable of expressing. As the girl paused, with a decided thump, the old lady exclaimed: A very sane and sensible one thats got to be worked out, so please listen to it, maam. Ive had it a good while, Ive thought it over thoroughly, and Im sure its the right thing for me to do. Im old enough to take care of myself; and if Id been a boy, I should have been told to do it long ago. I hate to be dependent; and now theres no need of it, I cant bear it any longer. If you were poor, I wouldnt leave you; for I never forget how kind you have been to me. But Uncle doesnt love or understand me; I am a burden to him, and I must go where I can take care of myself. I cant be happy till I do, for theres nothing here for me. Im sick of this dull town, where the one idea is eat, drink, and get rich; I dont find any friends to help me as I want to be helped, or any work that I can do well; so let me go, Aunty, and find my place, wherever it is. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
