Need Shoes!!

It's Monday, the day when we learn how to DO GOOD in this world in easy ways.  Today it's shoes!

I hate shoe shopping, there I said it.  I love shoes, but not the shopping for them.  I have notoriously difficult feet to fit.  Can you say 9 ½ Narrow? The high point on my foot is in the wrong place.  My ankles don’t cooperate very well with boots or sandals.  However, when the planets align and I do find those perfect shoes, WATCH OUT!!!

 

This, my friends, is what we classify as a FIRST WORLD PROBLEM!

What if it didn’t matter whether the shade of pink was just right?  What if the heel wasn’t exactly what you were looking for?

What if you had no shoes at all and it actually was a matter of life and death?  Or at least serious illness or injury?  What if your child had no shoes?  What if going to school depended on having shoes?

These, my friends are REAL PROBLEMS!

So what’s a girl to do?  Go shopping!  Yes, you heard me.  Go shopping.  I just bought my first pair of TOMS shoes.  With that pair for me a pair will be given to a child in need in some other part of the world.  I could guarantee that I would even be able to get a pair of shoes to a child in a foreign country if I wanted to on my own.  With these, I can.

Remember my first world problem?  These fit perfectly and are so comfortable, way more supportive than I imagined with the flat sole.  I’ve got my eyes on some cute wedges, and I can feel good knowing I’ll DO GOOD if I get them.

Go check them out if you’re looking for that perfect little summer go everywhere shoe.  Look around their website and see how you can get involved.  There are other ways to help and we’ll talk about them later.

How do you do good when shopping?  Have a tip for me?  Leave it in the comments.  I’d love to learn more.

How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, "Your God reigns!"
