Soul shoes

This post is dedicated to my Reebok shoes.

Funny really. This reebok was the first real shoes that I bought for myself. Actually, my brother got it for me at the Khols in NJ.

In many ways these are not mere shoes for me. They are a symbol of me going places - literally. They saw me take those kid steps as a frightended deer not knowing one avenue to another in Central NY to being myself in Munich Germany quite comfortably without an inkling of German.

They gave wings to my feet and pushed them forward in the right direction.

Today after much debate I had to shelf them and buy a new pair. I opted for a Nike Air - but maintained the same black color scheme to keep up with the sprit!

My brother would have forgotten this little expense of a long time ago. But to me it is the best investment ever made.
