after and beforeshots of my 4 year pumas
I don't know what hit me, or what I ate but for some reason, I asked our helper to clean my 4 year puma sneakers for the first time. That sneakers stood the test of time - it has been through everything: floods, dirt, mildew, ebs, thunderstorms, flashfloods - the works (well, cut thunderstorms and flashfloods).
It is rotten and worn out. But it is still mighty durable and I use it until now. I remember the time when it was still squeeky clean. 4 years passed and it's near its twilight of its life. If we convert a sneakers' life to a human being, it would be 80 years old now.
Ah, the times we spent together precious sneakers. The bond we shared, the laughs we had, the trials we took. We are like brothers. We are more than brothers. If you have a soul, you could have been my soul mate. Lol.
Anyways, kidding aside - this is what we call change. Change molds us for the better. Though we miss the old times, we still need to be thankful on what we have today. Change is constant, like the constant rushing of river waters - it never stops. The only thing that is constant in this world full of uncertainties is change. Yes, the memories of the lovely long ago lingers still on your mind, but today is a new chance to partake.
Everything changes but memories don't. No one can take away your memories. The memories of the unending happiness you once enjoyed. The memories of the day when you were so alive. But who knew, the change that happened maybe for the better? It is maybe for the best.
So lovely squeeky clean sneakers, do not worry, though you are clean, I would still remember the long hikes we had, the floods we endured and the mountains we climbed. Your rotten memories will always reside in el corazon.
:)
