To buy, or not to buy?

Thursday, May, 28, 2015

Hello everyone, this is Anand with another Awesome English update! ?I hope you guys are keeping cool in this crazy heat. ?My only worry is that it will somehow get even hotter in the coming months…In any case, I was walking in Don Quixote the other day and as I walked aimlessly around the show section I found myself with an old dilemma. ? You probably can’t tell from any of my blog posts, but I am a pretty short guy at around 160 centimeters tall. ?That is the kind of short that crosses international borders. ?No one in the world would consider me anything buy “short”. ?But in any case, I came across a pair of elevator shoes – the kind of shoes that can add a couple inches to your height. ?Anyone who is even near my size has thought about buying them, including myself. ?I however, refuse to use them. ?I feel like wearing them would be an admission that my height bothers me and would be a far bigger statement than just being short would ever be. ?The fact of the matter is that there are things in our life that we have no control over, and to try and change these things speaks volumes, as does continuing to live your life and not letting them bother you. ?So while I do contemplate walking around a couple of inches taller than usual, I don’t think I will be wearing those shoes anytime soon.
