What’s my pressure point? It used to be pressure now it is enjoyed-the everyday living of life. Switching jobs, changing my attitude, and laughing everyday have made a pressure point into a positive point! Loved the thoughts your provoked in your post!

Shoe Pressure

Running shoes = something I probably should be doing.
Swanky high heels = something I probably shouldn’t be doing.
That’s why I go barefoot.

My pressure point used to be time before I retired (recently). Now it’s searching for value in time.

I always wondered what the point of pointed heel shoes was. I hope my toes never have to learn the hard way.

Pebbly, I love that! The point of life is the pressure point.

Well, Pebbly, I believe in heaven, so that’s how my life is going to end (after death).

Life; what is the point? – the pressure point. For me it’s relationships. I’ve learnt a lot over the years about ways to make them as smooth as possible, but there’s still so much to learn. Is it a journey without a destination? I’d like to think we can enjoy the ride even if there’s no perfectly happy ending.

BTW, How’s yours going to end?

Excellent post — thought provoking for sure. One big difference between women’s high heeled shoes and running shoes is the way pressure on the heel is distributed. With a flared heel, a running shoe distribute pressure over a much bigger area — distributes the pressure among a much larger number of points. I’ll take the running shoes any day of the week!!

Hey, good one, Paul! Isn’t it amazing how the most inconsequential things we run across on the path of life can spark the most profound thoughts?

Great entry, Paul: pithy, powerful, provoking!

Tip o’ the hat, Bubba!
