The Poor Shoe

Life is like a ferris wheel they used to say but some ferris wheel of life seems to stop or the machine doesn't function at all. There are people who are gifted with insanity. People who are gifted with incurable diseases. "Some will say I know your kind of shoe" to them "I've been there, Stay strong"... Little they've realized that sometimes the person they are referring - aren't wearing one. They have nothing at all to protect their feet. No shoe at all for us to copy them, not even dirty ones because they don't have one at all... Poem Image: Pixabay Poem: Mysterious Aries

I walk at home barefooted but not outside the house.

Still lucky I think. Some walk in the broken glass barefooted.

Personally, it is better to put ourselves into others' shoe. For us to be sensitive in not hurting them.

@simplfred It is not easy to be sensitive. But, it can be learned.

Lovely poem!! Each one here has got their own share of journey and they have to manage with their own feet and own shoes. The only thing that we can do is show some respect towards each other.

Yes this is why I always try to listen intently. One never knows what the other person is suffering. Thanks for this Frederick.
