Shoe shoo

Today I wore a pair of gorgeous moccasins that I've had for over a year and as much as I've worn them never have I ever worn them long enough.
Today was a true test in that I walked good and long and realized midway that the damn things were biting me.
A bit of bite is hardly an issue, for I'm not the one to complain about trivialities but these bastards bit me right through the tights I wore and they weren't just any tights but thicker meant for winter warm tights and if there's a pair of shoes that could imitate jaws for feet then I'm running in the exact opposite direction because after a while it became near impossible for me to walk in them, so much so that I limped and felt the skin peeling away from the backside of my foot where the shoes scraped a mighty hurt.
I could not take it to the point that instead of going where I was meant to I made a beeline to the nearest mall, limping as I was and walked in to a Decathlon store because I meant to buy a pair of sneakers for working out and this was a sign from high above or right below.
To buy the most comforting dark pair of shoes with a grey lining to match my jacket was for me a thing of the moment and oh the comfort of donning those absolutely lovely miracles on my feet.
It was almost as if I were walking on thick clouds, so deliciously cushy did they feel, oh how they hugged my feet and whispered soft promises of cozy snugness.
It felt like a new lease on life, like the ache and burden of having worn torture melt away with every step and the hospitable environment where my tormented feet suddenly found themselves in soothed my heart right to the roots of my darkening soul.
I can walk, run, climb mountains, scamper up trees and push the moon into the ground. That's how fabulously comforted I feel.

The lovely shoes that turned on me like traitors after all these times of being worn have now been dumped into the dustbin because I cannot abide by anything that is willing to hurt me.
Beauty might be pain but vanity to me is more about comforting pleasures and there is absolutely no way on this earth when I'd be willing to go through hurt especially on my feet.
