Shoes


Thursday was TOMS One Day Without Shoes. Being an avid TOMS fan and campus representative it's a cause I'm very passionate about. Last year I gladly and willingly shed my shoes and enjoyed every minute of the warm spring ground beneath my naked toes. This year was all about learning to be grateful for my shoes. My feet weren't happy as I dragged them across cold, wet, stony parking lots; they weren't happy when they sunk in the mud; they certainly weren't happy when it snowed. They were stressed and in pain and numb to the bone.

Some people live every day this way... barefoot on stone, in mud, and in snow or rain. Shoes are something I certainly don't lack which makes them easy to take for granted.

Thanks TOMS for being the change.
