Ok..you might ask what's the big deal about both? Well, obviously it would take a woman to understand this very sensitive issue...Yes! it's sensitive! at least for me...i don't make sense do i? It does reflect my frame of mind. I'm at wit's end so you'll have to excuse my inconsistencies.
Actually, it all boils down to 2 things...STRESS and yes...SHOES!!!
The logic is simple really... when one is stressed out for whatever reason, one wants to run as far away from the source of stress as possible. And so, we definitely need a great pair of shoes so we can make a graceful exit, post-haste.
So, going to the mall to find some perfectly nice pair of shoes could be the most reasonable course of action when you feel really bothered by all that's around you. In one of my "moods" i rushed into the mall...lo and behold! there was one pair of brown leather pumps which i really thought would look good on my tootsies..and for less than 300 pesos (USD6$), it was practically a steal! Did I buy it?
Well, I didn't...I really wanted to though, but after some thought I figured I really do not have any need for a new pair of flats. You see, sometimes when we are confronted with issues and conflicts, it doesn't always help to turn away from them all. In life, we should learn to choose the battles we want to fight, and the battles where we should just scamper in flight.
Today, wasn't a battle I wanted to fly away from. It was a battle I wanted to face, so tomorrow, I could face the day and say to myself, "Yesterday, I was very strong and I resisted the urge to put on a new pair of shoes..Today, I won't want to...so tomorrow I'm going back to get my new pair...I hope to God they still have my size..."
