I was so sure that no one could fill in my ex lover's shoes. He was the only love in my life that completely filled me. When he left, my life was over. I couldn't imagine anyone ever taking his place. And then Mike came into my life and although he will never be like my ex, he has filled other parts of me and has given me something beautiful and STABLE. You'll find that one day. You just need to give these other guys a chance. *hugs* X

I never try to fill old shoes when I can go out and buy something pretty and new - perhaps something with baubles and ribbons - or better yet, sharpened blades. Something water proof, with deep grooves for ultimate traction. Leather? You know the smell of new leather. Like that. Okay, the point being.... well, you get the point. You can put new pom poms on those old shoes that were Habibi, but they're still going to kill your instep no matter how much you wanna dress 'em up and remember them fondly. (No one EVER wants to remember how totally uncute those shoes were the day you fell down the escalator at Macy's.) I totally "get" all this. And despite our silly tears, our distorted memories all mingled up with something "real" - we'll cling to these badges as long as it "serves us." And when we're ready, we can let them go. That might be today, it might be when we're old and grey - or even just old, not even grey yet. It's up to us. It all comes down to you. You know that Joni Mitchell song... "every comes and goes, marked by lovers and styles of clothes. Things that you held eye and told yourself were true, lost and changing as it all comes down to you. It's down to you constant stranger (you're a brute, you're an angel, you can crawl you can fly too.) It's down to you. It all comes down to you." I'm very stream of conscious this morning. - Zu

Awww. I just really just want to reach over and wipe that nose...must be my inner "mommy". I agree with Zuzu about the pompoms on the Habibi shoes. Aside from killing your instep all over agin, they're going to look ridiculous. I hope you feel better soon. xoxo
