Your shoes are dirty. Please go home and change it.
-------------
My dad always told me that people with dirty shoes are hard to trust and are people who are stupid and ignorant. It reflects a person's personality and ethics. After that, I got really worried with getting my shoes dirty.
That was 8 years ago.
Everyday, I try to figure out why my shoes always get dirty when I just walk. Today, getting down from the cab, my shoes were in tip top black color. After walking 3 minutes to my school, my shoes were dripped with mud and the front curve of my shoe is as dark as brown choco.
This made me think, that whatever I do to make my walk just plain subtle makes it even more dirtier. This makes reality seem so sad for me. So, I guess I'm a person who is hard to trust, stupid and ignorant.
To my father, sorry if I have failed you everyday. Every fucking day. Sorry if I can't live up to the standards of knotting my tie, creating a formal sense in my wear, knowing what the differences are of the different spoons and forks on a dining table, having super cleaning habits as good as yours, creating connections like you could, taking care of my things. It's just this, I just can't. I observe my every move and I see that the more I take care of every thing makes it even more shabby and crooked.
I apologize.
I'll try doing it again and again until I make you proud.

hmmm what do my shoes say about me then?
my sneakers have orange spots on them from tie dyeing, and my white laces look like they got the plague...

ever heard of that story about the guy who paints houses?
when he started out he would get most of the paint on his jumpsuit and later on he'd be able to paint the whole day without getting a speck on himself.

maybe it's the same thing with the mud/mess on our shoes?
we've only been around for less than 2 decades ... we have the next 50 or so years to learn how to keep our shoes clean hahahha
just trying to sound encouraging heheh :) *hug*
haha, to each his own, i guess. :P
maybe i'd keep the moral that i'd keep my shoes clean to be presentable rather than accepting it as an inevitability.
:P I still have to make my father proud, though it might take a while.
love you.
hey, i need to talk to you =(
hey there. what's up? :P
