Day 78: Shoes

Hi again,
For some reason last night I could not post on my blog so I decided to just leave it till this morning. So this post is for yesterday. I am thankful for shoes because I was reminded how blessed I am to have shoes while reading a book called "28 Stories of Aids in Africa". The focus of this book isn't about shoes but reading through it reminded me about this blessing. Something so common that we take for granted is the ability to buy footware that we do not have to walk barefoot. Some people have many pairs of shoes and others just a few but either way we have something to cover our feet. Something so simple that we may or may not take for granted can be a luxury for other people in different parts of the world. There are people who may not ever own a single pair of shoes in their lifetime and yet here we own many in our lifetime. There are people that can't afford alot of shoes and have to make do with shoes that are worn but the fact is that we still have something covering our feet. We still have something protecting our feet from stuff on the ground that could harm our feet. So for this day I am very thankful for shoes.
