Living Life – Just Right
Today TOMS shoes is asking people to go one day without shoes to spread the awareness of the impact of a pair of shoes on a persons life. For those of you who don’t know, TOMS donates one pair of shoes for every pair purchased to children in need around the world. (Thank you TOMS for what you do!)
I was on my Twitter account when the following question came from TOMS
TOMSshoes Tell us how your barefoot day is going! What have u realized is #hardwithoutshoes?
My response was instant
GoldilocksBlog @TOMSshoes My feet are cold…
I caught myself instantly, which inspired this blog. My response should have been – My feet are cold…, but I’m grateful for the many shoes in my closet.
Our ultimate goal in living our perfect lives is to be happy. So shouldn’t we look for happiness in every situation. Don’t we usually find what we are looking for?
Just a thought…

I love what I am doing. I could sit here all day long blogging, writing, exploring places that I want to travel too, and how I am going to make it possible to live my dream. I love it so much so, that at times I have to force myself to step away, to interact with friends. I guess the pull is so strong because for years I was miserable doing “all the right things”. Things that friends and family expected of me, and was more the norm.
I’m not going to lie. I have moments where I think I may be crazy, because my new life is going against the way I have lived for years, and I wonder if I will make it. But, I am happy for the first time in years, and that seems rather priceless to me right now.
Money and your material possessions can be taking away from you, how you feel inside can not. Isn’t it time we started focusing on what brings us joy, start working our passion, and creating the lives that we want.
