SOLE POWER

Your Top 10 Shoes [TF 269] got me thinking. I’m not sure about you, and it’s not that I don’t trust people wearing shoes, but I do much prefer the barefooted! Basically they can feel the earth through their feet, and so they have that connection with nature. So let’s hear it for Tarzan, Jake in Avatar, Jack in Legend, Frodo, and even J-Law in Mother! And my all-time favourite, Christy Brown in My Left Foot.
