At different points in the play, both of Langston's parents try to discourage him from becoming a writer.
Imagine that you are Old Langston. Write a letter to James and Carrie, explaining why you chose not to abandon your dream and how you feel about your decision.
There are no human answers yet.

Dear James and Carrie,

I understand why you both were so concerned about my decision to pursue a career as a writer. You wanted to protect me from the potential hardships and disappointments that come with such a path. But I could not ignore the passion I felt for writing, and I knew that I had to follow my heart.

I am grateful for your love and support, and I know that you only wanted the best for me. But I also know that I have to make my own decisions and take responsibility for the consequences. I am confident that I have made the right choice, and I am excited to see where this journey will take me.

I hope that you can understand and accept my decision. I promise to work hard and make you proud.

Sincerely,

Old Langston
