Shoe less! Shoes galore!


 

Self examination and soul searching can be done upon reflection on ones past and examination of the present.  How one makes use of his shoe less days and his shoe galore days is left entirely up to him or her.

It is positive to relish in the belief that truth sets us free. And that to become a chameleon would only bind us to the prison of fickleness.

My morning’s musings;

There stands a little biddy girl of 3 in front of her home which she considered the best in the world. Even when the wind blew its wrath through the slats on the walls, and she was cold she just didn’t exist but lived.  

Even though she knew then and now that being shoe less was due to poverty she still with fondness tenderly enfolds these moments in her heart.  

Her feet were bare and she remembers crunching autumn leaves underfoot. She felt the splendour of nature then and still fondly remembers those moments with much zeal today. Some days she yearned for her feet to be dressed in shoes, especially when crunching went very wrong and her feet would be blistered from the rough ground.

She remembers a day not long ago when she crunched beautiful autumn leaves. She looked down at her feet and smiled a sigh. Her feet were not blistered anymore. It was warm and cosy. With the cosiest leather boots that kept them toasty. But she never forgot those days of crunching autumn leaves with bare feet that ended up bleeding and blistered.

Her past is what motivates her to be wholesome today.  She thanks that which was broken for within the breaks light shone through making the path forward easy enough to see. She is what she is and will continue to be who she is. Body, mind and spirit a whole.
