The way some people view the value of shoes can be indirectly related to the way people treat others. When we first see someone that we really want to meet or be with, kind of like that feeling when you glare through the window at a new pair of Air Force Ones, we would do anything to get it. We think about the person and long from him/her everyday, that is, until we actually meet them and get to know them. Like when we get that new pair of shoes, we are filled with unexplainable excitement. As we start to wear the shoes more often though, they start become old and worn out, kind of like the person you really wanted to be with. I do not actually perceive people this way, but I know that peculiar excitement definitely dies down after a while for anybody.
If I were to be a shoe, I would want to be one that is highly durable but not high in price. Being high in price, people will expect much out of me because that is how most people in society perceives value. Most expensive shoes are made the same way as those of cheaper prices. If I am so much higher in price than other shoes around me, people will be very upset with me if I let them down. But..... if I am relatively low in price but still function the same way, people will not be as disappointed because they were expecting it. This is basically how I live life. I don't really want people to put high hopes in me because I do not want to let them down or waste their time. Thus, I walk a quiet and mellow road.
