These Shoes

Most people can see you without really knowing what is on your mind making comments about the shoes you wear because they are worn and leaning to the side Laughing saying how they would not be caught wearing raggedy shoes such as these although for you it is a blessing for you to have these shoes on your feet For everyone can't wear these shoes they are yours and fit you just right there appearance should be be the last thing on someone's mind while you have these shoes in your sight Just to walk in someone else's shoes is extraordinary in it self history confirms that so many have tried and ultimately have failed In these shoes you can walk life's path through someone else's eyes it is not an easy task to see another's hopes and dreams there beginnings and endings and how they paid the price Everyone's shoes have walked a different path some have strolled the red carpet while others have walked through fire and glass to their future and from their past Although to each it was never a bother like Jesus Christ the shoes he wore made him destined to walk on water because he was the son of our most gracious father All I'm saying is shoes ate shoes no matter what style or size it is the feet in the shoes that makes a difference even when they are tired and ugly to the eye So next time just stop that person and ask them where those shoes have taken them in life and if you actually stop and talk to them you can see their whole life story from the expression in their eyes
