A. Fashionista's advice for a Stylin Yogini's Love for Shoes

Shoes_004 Of course A. Fashionista never fails to deliver and delight.  Here are pics of her lovely red tootsies from her blog - http://diaryofalabellover.typepad.com.  I'll have to say the wedge heel looks super comfortable.  But I won't know until I try them for myself.    The pinky toe might be squished in them.  And how I love to move my pinky toe!

Shoes_002_3 I think about the human drama of never being quite comfortable enough in these bodies we carry.  Yet - we try anyways.  In Gurumayi Chidvilasananda's book Courage & Contentment, I am reminded to practice "santosha" - deep contentment even in the midst of my divine discontent.  So shoes may never be a source of contentment for this yogini, and as I continue the fruitless, hungry ghost search outward for the perfect heeled shoe, I may just have to put up with a little pinching here, a little blister there and lots of reflexology to ease the suffering.
