Walking in someone else’s shoes.


Shoes – Walking in someone else’s shoes.
What is nicer and more posh than a brand new pair of shoes! We all love shoes- whether it is some old slip slops or some comfy slippers, it protects our feet from outside elements and dirt, keeps our toes nice and warm as toast.

No shoes are allowed upstairs in our house. ‘Please take off your shoes when you enter’ The dirt/germs  that they contain at the bottom is too big to mention, therefore: No shoes upstairs!

It is not always easy to walk in another person’s shoes. Here are some photos I took of my grand child 'trying his best to walk in Nana's shoes. It is a struggle!

 No two people are the same and each has its own mould and shape to fit the owner comfortably. Gone are the days when the only shoes we knew as children were the hand-me-downs from my older sister and then the hand-me-downs from some rich distant cousin. No damage came from it as I have perfect straight toes and no ailments at my age.

How difficult is it to walk in another’s shoes? In our lives we often envy other people for what they stand for and their way of life-it is only sometimes when we talk deeper----we find they struggle to balance on those high heels. Their lives look glam, but in fact they carry so much pain that nobody can ever imagine. Think twice before you judge a person by its comfy / lovely / expensive /pauper ‘’shoes’’. It is also not always so easy to ‘fill’ someone’s shoes in a new position or endeavour. The only way is to try.

Here are some bootees I knitted – not for the faint hearted! Very bright, loved by some free spirit people who broke the mould with their babies. I grew fond of them as the babies respond to them with a hint of interest!

Very bright,

Weekend is almost upon us so enjoy your own shoes and be content with them or give them a good polish!

Luvvies
