Daddy's Shoes

Today was a very monumental day for me. I was honored at Senior Awards night for my scholarships received and spent the day preparing for the Drama Club Closing Social. The social truly was amazing. It was filled with laughs, tears, and shouts as we remembered and moved forward with Clearfield High School Theatre.
I entitled this blog "Daddy's' Shoes"
When everyone is young they can remember putting on their dads giant shoes. I can remember my dads dirty, leather, steal toed boots and remember how they sheltered my small feet at the time. My dad would then reach out his hand and place it in front of mine and would compare his massive hands to my seemingly miniature ones. He would tell me one day I MIGHT have big feet and big hands. I would reply by saying something like "by then, you'll be in a wheel chair and I am going to push you out of it!"
Why am I connecting these deeply personal stories with this day?

I have realized that I AM replaceable. As I stood upon the Little Theatre stage for the last time and presented the new officers I looked at them; one of them being my own little sister, and I saw in them the same spark I had my Junior and Sophomore year. That spark is what keeps the flame of theatre alive at CHS. Without that spark none of it would be possible.
I told Spencer Hunsicker, the NEW Theatre President, this, "You have big shoes to fill. 11.5 to be exact!" He replied, "Well I am only a 10."
We all feel like "10's" at time. We all feel inadequate or vulnerable at times and whilst I have made a big impact at CHS I have no doubt in my mind that those officers can do it.
I lost someone special to me tonight.
I hate how it makes my family hurt.
I hate how I feel responsible.
I hate how it makes me feel.
I hate that the shoes I once wanted to fill


I can't even get in to run away with.
