"Doe Season"

In the story "Doe Season" by David Kaplan I thought it stood for a journey of life that reminds me of my life. I feel as though you must go through many choices in your life and for Andy it was a very difficult one. The story first starts out with criticism from Mac and Charlie. Just because she was a female they didn't see why she should come. Although they did respect her, her father looked at her with the up most respect. It is the typical journey in life many people are going to put you down and judge you by first impressions. You are going to have to push through that and listen to people who are supportive. Although Andy's dad was very proud, respectful, and believed in her, some people aren't that lucky. Some people may not have anyone to believe in them. Also in the story when Andy runs away from them, I don't think she was necessarily running away from them I believe she was running from reality. She felt terrible that she shot that deer. There are sometimes things in life that you may have done that you are not proud of and you just try to forget about it and move on with your life. This is a good story in the sense it will remind you of life goals, choices, and consequences. Great story to give you a little reality check, and can really relate to anybody, even people who don't hunt!
