Thinking my metaphor in this must be too vague!! This is NOT about shoes, it's about 'friendship"!! The first paragraph, my newest friends (for example some of my poet friends!!) The second, my friends that I frequently hang out and do things with. Third, old friends and acquaintances that I have fallen out of touch with or rarely see, and last, my oldest and dearest friends, my lifelong friends, the ones that have grown and aged (wrinkles) right along with me and understand me the best. Broken laces? In long friendships you may not always agree, but you can usually "mend" anything that breaks.Ginny Brannanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15298060016652737538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3884360193624478106.post-70243735201339192342011-07-24T00:40:18.885-04:002011-07-24T00:40:18.885-04:00i agree my favorites are the old ones along with m...i agree my favorites are the old ones along with my old jeans...like a comforting old blanket...bkmsigned...bkmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03558304976280070986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3884360193624478106.post-63518992505891054042011-07-24T00:26:53.757-04:002011-07-24T00:26:53.757-04:00I do love when shoes are so familiar that they fee...I do love when shoes are so familiar that they feel an extension of you.
