In this story, writing symbolizes innate passion and interest, especially as juxtaposed with direct conflicts to that innate interest. Throughout the story, Francie finds that she cannot resist an interest and proclivity towards writing. However, she receives much discouragement from her mother, her teachers, and her classmates. At the end of this story, this discouragement continues to coexist with her reflexive passion for writing as her main interest.
