New Shoes…

I bought some shoes today because I need them. The old ones are comfortable… I like them… but they couldn’t serve me where I was walking to. When I put them on I realized that they did not immediately feel good. There was a little discomfort but I kept them on. I kept walking… I kept moving. By the end of the day, I realized that the discomfort slowly went away.

Every day some of us are starting a new journey. We are scared to put on the new shoes for this journey because the old ones are comfortable. We tend to need immediate validation… immediate satisfaction… immediate support. We are not always going to get these things. Sometimes you have to keep walking… you have to keep moving until the circumstances and people around you mold and fit for where you are going.
