THE GIANT HEELS ......

Three days back,I was supposed to go out with my cousin sister to a restaurant in order to celebrate a treat.As usual, I was late and fell asleep just before an hour ,thanks to my sweet patient sister who knows these bad habits of mine and kept on calling me till I got up,I managed to leave home around half an hour late to the scheduled time,and ,as expected I could not find the right pair of shoes to wear with my dress at the last moment and somehow found out a pair of real-high heels that I bought more than a year back but hardly wore them .Whenever I tried wearing them in past (not more than 5-6 times),it caused either really painful blisters or ankle sprains and when luckily none of those happened,I had to be real  cautious while walking and had to take each and every step slowly,afraid of having a bad fall and be a joke in a public place..

 My usual not -so-slim built was also what was going against my walk,making each and every step difficult and  painful.

But the heels,which from outside looked extremely pretty,(though I do not suffer from any shoe-fetish unlike most of my girl-friends)but getting rid of  those pretty heels was extremely difficult.I could not walk and had to take an auto on my way to the restro,though I preferred to walk that small-walk.

This reminded me of a guy a close friend of mine used to date,being with him she felt exactly this same way,he had a highly educated background,okay looks,they had similar interests and she learnt many things from him (some she shouldn't have)and a great job.A guy most of the girls love to date.But unlike her,he used to judge everything by their brand values,had no strong sustainable emotions,no power to go by what he felt and knew was right,kept on hurting her telling her how she was not good enough for him,and she,being a stupid silly romantic girl,believed in him,She felt so much for him that  she blindly trusted him and each and every promises he made ,all of which,he broke in the end.

He was same as the pretty heels..alluring...addictive..catchy,hard to get rid of..and she definitely was,all "HEAD OVER HEELS" for him, but thank-god, she managed to get rid of him in the end..though it took a hell lot of time.

What would life be if they still be together,she still be with him,he preferred to get married by the time she turns 24,for he just could not wait(if you know what I mean)..and for his sake,even if she had got married to him,he would keep on reminding her that she is not pretty ,rich or good enough for him,for the outside world she would be a lucky girl ,married to a gem of a boy,having a bright future ahead and living happily ever after with no financial worries..just like wearing the pretty shoes..

These painful heels were a good reminder for me,next time,I will buy one which fits me and also complements the person I am,the one that would make my journey of life a pleasant and comfortable one..and I can go on miles and miles wearing it..!
