In My Shoes

Between saying and doing many a pair of shoes is worn out. ~Italian Proverb

A Tibetan teacher describes practice as the wearing out of a old pair of shoes. With the soles worn thin, ego and delusion leave. The more time spent in writing practice, the more insights gained. 

Revelations arrive by pushing words into one another.  When we risk and attempt new ideas, confidence increases. Like a comfortable pair of shoes with mileage, the words will begin to energize us to keep moving.

Creative write:  Choose a pair of shoes: running shoes, strappy heels, construction boots, sandals or a pair of your choice.  What adventures will you walk into today?
