My first post...

As this is my first blog I would love to start off with telling you why I thought 'The Girl With The Red Shoes' was the most appropriate name for my blog. 

Firstly, as this blog is anonymous I couldn't exactly just say my name because, obviously, that's a secret... 

But the reason is because to me red shoes symbolise strength, fun and attitude. It may be just me, but when you see a woman wearing red shoes most of them seem to be confident, like the shoes were empowering them. I don't know if it's the colour that brings the magic and the passion, but to me, they make me feel both of those things...

I read a quote from a blog today about a man's theory about red shoes. Monsieur Loubontin says he makes the soles of his shoes red because, "They attract men, the way a bull is attracted to a red cape."  

It is a very interesting quote, because yes it relates to men... But I think its more that you stand out from the crowd, and for me, I think I fit into the category of standing out from the norm. 

Also, with this amazing invention and colour you don't just get the confidence and attitude but you get a whole lot of fun, because when you feel good in your own skin, what can stop you from achieving the enjoyment you need?  Because isn't that what life is supposed to be about, and we deserve it, everybody does. 

So I thought, 'The Girl With The Red Shoes' was the best choice because in life we need the strength to push through those challenges that can be the smallest issues, to the issues where you feel like there is no hope left in the world. 

But also with the attitude, which we desperately need. Because without it, what are you going to do when that person or issues just keeps pushing you down, over and over again? You need to stand up and just say, NO. NO MOREYou are in control of your own life. 


So from now on, if you remember, why couldn't we wear our imaginary red shoes, or even our real ones everyday and feel good? So, through these blogs I'm going to write things that have happened in my life or even random things for that matter. Because my goal is if I can help at least one person in the slightest way, I will be so happy. Because when you read my story, you will understand why I say, nobody should go through anything I did... 


This is my first blog and I can't wait for the rest...

till next time,

xoxo
