Barefooting Girl is back! :)

Dearest all!

I am still alive!
Not only alive, but also active and growing (rather mentally, my height has definitely stopped increasing) and living and... barefooting? Of course!
I am definitely back with my little stories! Are you glad?
ARE YOU? I hope you are! :)

It’s always very challenging to jump into whole-year-round barefooting. And it is a BIG difference between taking off your shoes every now and then and being barefoot all the time. As you might have experienced. 

Yes, yes, I know, you are telling me that there are situations you can not do whatever you wish (like hanging around with no shoes on), but I would like to invite you to look at those situations from a different perspective: 
Imagine having a magic camera with a special shoe-removing lens. Isn’t it fun? 
How do you feel looking at everybody being barefoot? Is this how you immagine heaven? Well, maybe not, but certainly it’s amusing. 
Now put down your special camera and I’ll give you a bonus – you gain the privilege to remain like in a heaven (that means barefoot). Everybody else has to go back to their boring feet covers (=shoes). Poor them. But you are a special person, so enjoy your bonus, your uniqueness, your being THE ONLY ONE! 

Now look at the same situation you said it was impossible to go barefoot. Do you still think so? Do you really think you have to adjust your behaviour according to what the others do or are you a special person who might become a leader for the others?

Are you aware that on the world there is a plenty of people who dream about doing something different, something extraordinary, something crazy or brave, but they just never do anything because nobody does? Or because they fear being looked at; they are afraid of being judged, they dread to be slendered, they are scared of what reaction people around might be. Weren’t you one of them?
I was. 
But I am not anymore. 
Because if you don’t hit the road, you will never discover new places. 
If you don’t overstep your bounds, you will never grow. Mentally I mean. 
I don’t understand why people are always remaining at the same boring point. But I know one thing. Show them that there’s a way and they will follow. Maybe not immediately. Maybe not when you see them. But if there is a shadow of doubt in their minds, seeing somebody who does it differently might lighten them and show them a new way. A possible way. Nothing is impossible - we just have to realize it.

To conclude I would like to invite you not only going barefoot for all those amazing benefits barefooting brings, but also for tearing down mind-barriers of others and helping to knock down the System’s restrictions which, basicly, make us doing things we don’t want in the way we don’t like. Phew!

If twenty people look at you going barefoot in your town, at least one of them will ask himself an important question: “why?”. And they might try it barefoot themselves to find the answer. 
You leader think about it! ;)

See you soon and don’t forget to enjoy your life BAREFOOTING!

To promote barefooting or not?

Hello my dear followers! (One? Two? Dare I say three?!?)
Spring is definitely coming, it's closer and closer... But this is not a subject I wanted to talk about today.

Tom wrote in his last comment that:
We have to promote our lifestyle.

Well, I am not sure if the way WE HAVE TO is the right one.
Maybe we should just stick with our lifestyle and let others to get inspired if they want to?Cause it doesn't really matter how badly you want them to share your point of view, if they aren't ready for that, you'll be in their eyes only a silly man (woman) with no shoes. :)

Actually I do think that barefooting requires a certain mental level. As a matter of fact, you barely ever meet a barefooter with uninteresting life story, right? Everybody has their own reasons why to do that, but hardly ever you hear "I do that just because everybody (or somebody I know) does so". Right?
Unfortunately there are only a few things we may say the same about. Maybe piercing? Dreads? Well, even these were at the beginning just outstanding - tatooed people having some dreads were just akward, but now it's slowly becoming a fashion style. Yeah, we just have to HOPE the same ending for us, barefooters. 

Just imagine the freedom - no shoes for nobody.
Well, actually thinking about that I don't immagine the ideal as a shoe-less society, but as a society, where everybody has a right to decide for themselves if to wear shoes or not without being scared to dead that somebody he knows might see him and think he's a weird folk. Just live and let live. I don't judge you for having your shiny pointy shoes on (difficult, right? ;)) and you don't judge me for not wearing any shoes. You don't stare on me as if I just got off the U.F.O. and you surely aren't afraid to shake hands with me (cause who knows what kind of illness he/she might have, considering he/she is being barefoot for who-knows-how-long-time). Just mind your own business, clothes and shoes included!  

Is this too courageous idea? Is this pure utopia? Maybe! But the past has turned few utopias into a real life, so why couldn't be this one of them? ;) We never know! So remeber: when this concept becomes true, I will claim myself to be his founder, I become rich and famous and you all can say that you were present when the idea was born! Hahaha, xaxaxa, muhehe!

Cheers, stick with your cool lifestyle (no shoes at least home if outside is still too cold for you as it is for me), be an inspiration for as many people as you can and (last, but not least):
Enjoy the life barefooting!
