I will say to the prisoners, ‘Come out in freedom,’
and to those in darkness, ‘Come into the light.’
They will be my sheep, grazing in green pastures
and on hills that were previously bare.
They will neither hunger nor thirst.
The searing sun will not reach them anymore.
For the LORD in his mercy will lead them;
he will lead them beside cool waters.
~ Isaiah 49:9-10 (NLT)

0187. Good Shoes

I am picky at shoes since my foot is slightly out of shape due to an car accident. I am lucky enough to find two stores in Taiwan which I personally think they have good shoes. One is MAGY, which has show cases in all major department stores. The other one is Shoes Party, which only sells over internet.

MAGY's shoes are not always following the newest trends, which fits my style perfectly. And the reason I am in love with Shoes Party is that they stuff thicker in inner side of shoes. The obvious effect is when I wear high heels. The same 5-cm height heels, I can stand longer with their heels than others. Not only heels, Shoes Party also have other great shoes.

Last time, I was planned to wear the same casual shoes for a 5-day trip with friends. I received a pair of sheep-skin flat casual shoes the day before departure. I tried the shoes on and felt really comfortable. Since it was raining for several days, I was afraid that the only pair of shoes might get wet and no alternative. So I decided to wear my new pair of casual shoes at last minute. I was surprised and glad I had wore them on the trip. I walked around 12 hours with them later that day. Except the muscle sore due to the long walking, I didn't have any discomfort. The more amazing thing was at the second day. It was raining like typhoon day and water was everywhere on the side roads. The shoes weren't soaked at all. My conclusion after that trip is that it's great shoes!
