Like a constant companion, our shoes will take us where ever we go in life.  They are there, on our feet every step of the way.  They provide us the comfort and support we need to proceed through the twists and turns of life’s long and winding roads.  The strength of our shoes will see us to the top of the most challenging uphill climbs.  The souls of our shoes will endure the pain and suffering of the bottom of the deepest lows and hottest valleys we will journey through. They will carry us over the many many miles of life we will walk. 

Just like people, shoes come in all shapes and sizes. They are cut from different fabric and are created in every color.  An exceptional pair of shoes will share the moments of our life like a really good friend.  Other shoes are a fad or for fashion, or better yet,  part of a trend.  A pair of well made shoes will take great care of you.  They will remain by your side, aging alongside of you.

Shoes will bare witness to every step that we take.  They will share the times we walk down the trail to the lake.  The countless miles.  The beauty of smiles of people we meet along the way. 

Shoes walk a loyal walk.  And they talk a purposeful talk.

Though you may try them on….

you won’t understand where we’ve gone…

unless, you have walked…

in my shoes.
