That third pair was more an emotional backup than anything else. It was a symbol to her that she would always keep running and need yet another pair of perfect shoes down the road."<br /><br />I understand that feeling, maybe not with runners and maybe not with buying the exact same shoe but sometimes I buy shoes because of the life I want to lead and the experiences I want to have. And it somehow gives me hope. <br /><br />Liked this a lot. Even if it made me a little sad at the end. :)<br /><br />Vikki @ She Has Cute ShoesSheHasCuteShoes!https://www.blogger.com/profile/00561204720142033959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-338617130683721091.post-91786423216753175962011-07-15T08:53:09.086-04:002011-07-15T08:53:09.086-04:00very well written.
