Heal the Heel or Shoo the Shoe

Heal the Heel or Shoo the Shoe

There was a time when beauty was in the eye of the beholder , when curves were coveted , large noses were considered exotic , and physical imperfections created the subtle charm that made every woman unique

Today however , the only beholder has become the face staring back at us when we look in the mirror . A harsh critic , often too quick to judge and all too convinced that beauty is defined by magazine covers and television shows

Thus each day begins with that layer of powder to mask the shame artificial blush to distract from the dreariness , flashy clothes to hide the insecurity and , most importantly , those glorious , sexy mischievously high heels that lift the body .and consequently the soul

To deprive a woman of that false sense of elevation , that state of mind where she is looking down on others , uplifted in an air of perceived beauty , is like telling a ballerina she can no longer dance , an author he can no longer share his words , or a leader he has lost his right to rule

It is no wonder that there are so many women waiting in line for the chance to be raised ' up again on that imaginary pedestal . The risk of pain is almost laughable compared to the possibility of feeling sexy desired and , quite literally , above other women

In Gardiner Harris 's article entitled If Shoe Won 't Fit , Fix the Foot ? Popular Surgery Raises Concern ' he wrote about foot surgery as an emerging trend

This type of surgery is no different than fixing an awkward nose trimming off a few layers of cellulite or nipping and tucking a wrinkle or two . Why should it be ? Just because the area of interest is in the lower , less noticeable region of the body

I beg to differ . As a matter of fact I think our feet are strategically located . Of course there is the obvious reason - we need them to touch the pavement in to move from one place to another - but I think there is an even deeper meaning behind their proximity to the ground

Ever wonder why people stare at their feet when they feel insecure ? I believe it is not so much because they want to hide away from the problem staring them in the face but because the reassurance of their feet still firmly planted on the earth is proof of their ability to escape all obstacles - to move forward , backward and sideways regardless of the situation -and ultimately to charge past all hurdles , to step into safer ground

Also , notice in the movies , when it comes time to introduce the sexy vixen , the camera usually starts from her feet (often clad in siren red pumps or sultry black sandals with straps that crisscross back and forth , then it moves up to show her perfectly shaped body and lastly her irresistible face . But it all began at the bottom .
