My Shoes

Yesterday I had a revelation. The story goes like this. Early in the morning, I wore on a my favourite pair of blue poka dotted shoes to match with my simple dressing for the day. This little pair of shoes, although nice on the outside, gave me almost 10 blisters just wearing it the last time. Nevertheless, cos its my favourite, so I decided to give it a try again. I did everything I can. I rubbed candle wax on the rough edges, I put plasters on my little toes to protect it.

As I put it on, I had already prepared for the worst. However, as I walked on my way to work and even for the rest of the day, it did not hurt as much as before. I begin to walk with ease with it. This shoes help me to reflect upon life. Sometimes in life, cos of the hurts we experienced, we will choose to give up on something we once adored and love. Many a times, we will just choose to chuck it aside and move along and get new "shoes" in our lives. However, if pple would just stopped and gave tis little pair of shoes a 2nd chance, things might have been different. Though its a risk we gotta take(cutting our legs again), we will never know the outcome if we dun give it a 2nd chance. God indeed has given me many many chances. It doesnt mean I not stopped hurting Him a 2nd time, I still do after the umpteen times. But God has never given up on me.

And in addition, this little reflection also allow me to be stronger each time I give something or someone a 2nd chance. If I am just willing to face up to my hurts (legs injury in this sense), I will get unexpected results. (the joy of my pretty little pair of shoes). Though I might be taking a risk of hurting myself again, ultimately, it will still worth the ride. :)
