One of my favorite things I look forward to when I'm out in the world doing things where I have to wear shoes is ~ taking them off! My feet feel so free and able to connect again to the earth. I've been a barefoot girl since I was a young child and I still love that barefoot feeling. One of my goals is to buy some toe shoes http://www.vibramfivefingers.com/index.htm ( there are a lot of other sites I just picked one to show you) so my feet can be closer to mother earth even when wearing "shoes."
This is one of my favorite pieces of art in my house. It was made at a home school gathering years ago and different people contributed to it during that gathering. I continue to add and weave in and I never get tired of looking at it. It reminds me of friendships and our connectedness to each other and to the great Mother Earth. This picture doesn't do it justice, because the beauty is in the fine details... Just like us!
