SHOE
LACES
I confess that I treat some people
like shoe laces - not noticed till they
open - and ooops - till they break.
These everyday things I don’t notice.
And I go, “Uh oh! Oh no. Not again.
Ugh! Now what? I
need new laces.”
I confess to doing that - but confession
is not enough. I have to do more than
voice some blurts. I have to tie my laces
carefully. I have to pause and say to my
laces, “Thanks for a good tightness today.
Thanks for walking with me today.”
