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