Walk a Mile in My Shoes

Walk A Mile In My Shoes
It is so easy
to pass judgement
to lay blame
before even getting to
know someone
and before investing
in one’s life story
We all like to think that we can
relate to one another
but have you ever wondered
what it’s like to walk a mile in my
shoes?
to highlight my path through life
experiencing the same highs and lows?
to climb the mountains that have
been restrained by fear?
To cry the tears you
never thought you would hear?
to love with your full heart
and hold near those that
you hold dear?
To experience heart break
and having to piece it back together on your own
to rebuild
and repair yourself
renewing your faith
and trusting with every inch of your being?
Maybe if you were to walk a mile in my shoes
it would broaden your horizons
opening your eyes to
other’s experiences and feelings
it’s such an innate and complex feeling
to try to live as our friends and family members
would
It would increase the amount of respect
that we have for one another
as it should
Creating a greater understanding
and bond among common people
and community
Just give it a try
and walk a mile in my shoes
