The other day when I took a break from painting my dresser (pictures will come soon!) I noticed the TOMS Fall 2012 Catalog laying on our counter. It was opened to a page of cute shoes, so of course it grabbed my attention. I went to the beginning just in case there were other shoes I missed and I was blown away. No, I didn't miss any shoes, but I almost missed the story of these children in Peru. I looked at the pictures and read the captions and couldn't help but tear up in my living room. I was so inspired. One of the pictures showed a child getting help putting on his shoe and the caption read "Some of the kids wanted a larger size...". They were more worried about their future which shouldn't be a child's concern!
Me, on the other end, I am worried about my future. I am at the stage of finding a career after graduation. I was hoping after graduation I would have something figured out but I have no idea what path to take. Don't you wish someone would just tell you?! Well, whatever I decide to do I hope it is inspiring to others like TOMS shoes is to me. Just looking at these children's smiles makes me want to get up and do something good for my community. I encourage you all to take some time and look at the catalog or their blog.
Really inspiring!
