I took this picture while visiting my folks and I had to laugh hysterically. My Dad uses these old boots to take the compost out in the snow. His contention is that it’s not worth lacing up his regular boots when he’s got a perfectly good pair that he can just slip on. It could be argued that having to line them with bread bags to keep them from leaking does not make them perfectly good.
Then, I started thinking about all the people and kids who have to wear shoes like this or none at all. So, I went and visited TOMS Shoes and 2 more children in need will get a pair of shoes.
What will you give today?
