If it won't let you go places and enjoy your freedom, it has no place in your closet. In your life.

Scouting the stores to find the perfect pair of shoes is like searching the world for a life partner.
You even try your luck online.
You don't want to settle for the cute affordable pair though it's your perfect fit. Maybe because it hurts your toes.
The materials used aren't comfortable and durable enough.
It's not compatible.
You realize you can't endure the pain in exchange for its cheap price.
You won't let the perfect physical look deceive you.
If it hurts, you let it go. No matter how good it looks.
If it won't let you go places and enjoy your freedom, it has no place in your closet. In your life.
If it's too expensive and comfy, you scrutinize every inch.
Is it really worth it?
What if it will leave you with nothing in the end?
What if it just looks good, you grit your teeth and pay the price but later on find out it's not the perfect fit?
You've been taken advantage of.
So you search, and search, and continue searching for the right pair---or the right partner.
You don't listen to those telling you to give up and just settle for what's there.
Even though they mock your standards.
Every day your belief that finding the one that suits you best is almost within reach.
Every day your belief that finding the one that suits you best is almost within reach.
You realize that there is joy in waiting, and there is so much to learn in the process.
You get to know yourself more; what you really want and what you will not compromise.
You get to know yourself more; what you really want and what you will not compromise.
So you carry on.
The world is so big, and the choices seem endless.
In your heart, you know you will find the one that's specially made for you.
Maybe it's in the next corner waiting for you to claim it at the right time.
You keep on keeping on.

Because you know in the end, finding the right shoes...and the right partner is worth the long quest.
