About Me
- Chad Hatfield
- It was my mother who gave birth to me. I was much younger at the time. I am told that from the time I was born, I continued to grow larger and larger. Sometimes when someone hadn’t seen me for a couple of years, they’d remark, “My, how you have grown!” That’s what kind of tipped me off that this whole growth process was happening. I grew in other ways too. For example, I learned to talk, camp, kind of mosey around a lot, and communicate through dance. I continued to grow bigger all this time. And then at some point, all the growing stopped and I stayed the same size. However, I retained the ability to talk and camp without any noticeable decline. At no point during my growing phase did I ever grow gills or sprout wings or do anything else to cause me to believe that I was some kind of half-bird, half-fish type of creature. Other than that there is nothing else to note about me.

I have felt really down and I mean, really down. It kind is hard to explain. It feels like there is no way out, no hope. No one understands. What it must be like to be on top of the world. I never been there.
When I wrote "feeling down," I guess I was thinking more along the lines of feeling "short."
Now that I think about it, I guess feeling "down" could have more than one meaning. So, let me try that again.
Does anyone know what it's like to feel really short? I mean, really short. I would like to write about it, but I wouldn't know where to start. I am as tall as the top of the world.
I knew what you meant. Like "down in the dumps" kind of down, right? I've never been homeless before and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I'll never have to dive down in the dumps, so I guess I don't know how it feels either. Maybe you should conduct some undercover interviews with those people that live under the bridge.
My name is Barrito, but many call me Burrito, which is different but a nickname. I like it for sure. Sometimes when I am at the restarant, someone orders "Super Burrito" and that feels good to hear. But when I am with a lady friend she will see me when I get off my chair and I am short. This is different but worse: by far.
A person can be so short but that does not change his soul or name. This is all just my belief. Your beliefs are yours too. Thank you for giving me this chance.
