SHOES SHOES SHOES

How many pairs of shoes do you own? How many pairs do you actually wear? Do you ever see yourself always reaching out for that same pair? You know the one pair that brings you good luck, the one that makes you feel self-confident; the one that you always wear to similar occasions like a job interview, a first date, an important event, is it just one pair or is there one for each and every situation mentioned?

Take a look in your closet and label your shoes. Separate them as those you always wear and those that are just sitting there taking up the space. I bet there are shoes that have never been worn and even have the price tag on them. Why are they in your closet? Why not give them away to someone who has no shoes to wear?

Buying shoes can be for some people a source of pleasure. The same pleasure that you can get from eating a delicious dish, or the feeling that you get after waking up from a pleasant dream.

There are people who have dozens of pairs in their closets that they do not have a life time to wear. Meaning, a pair of spiked heels can be worn for a period of ten years; the years when you are young and can balance on them. However, as you get age, you need to also change the style of shoes that you wear. Feet change and so does your body, not to mention the loss of balance.  Do you give them away after not being able to wear them? No, some people hold on to them as if they were trophies to show others that one day they were young and glamorous and were able to wear those spiked heel shoes.

Give up what is cluttering your closet and help others out. Remember that your trash can be other people´s treasures.
