Shoes...

Check this out,

I see these shoes every so often. At first, i thought it might of been shoes for people who want to be taller, then I thought, maybe it's designed for a disable person. Something to help with the walking? Anyway, time and time again i see these shoes at the stores. Finally, i started seeing people wearing them. The first time, an elderly gentleman was wearing it... and i thought... RIGHT! it's to help with old people walk... but later, i started seeing women in their thirties wearing it... And even later, others were wearing it, it was just everywhere and everyone.

So i decided to ask one day..... and boy, i felt silly, it was for good orthopedics... i think that's how you spell it. Anyway... these shoes... i wonder if anyone can ever make them attractive to wear.

So here's the thing, i found myself at an impass as i thought it was ridiculous to wear something looking so silly, (there were worst looking ones then these) yet it could be good for you... but now that i had a chance to think about it... isn't good posture and good health much more important then lookin' fine? But why is it that I just can't ever see myself wearing this... something that doesn't have a aesthetic appeal. I mean... it FEELS absolutely right... and I wouldn't care if no one was watching.... but what is it inside us that just appreciates something that looks appealing?
