Wisdom Of The Ages

Every single time I walk past a shoe store with my mother and stop to peek in, she will say...


"You only have one pair of feet. How many pairs of shoes could you possibly need? You can't wear them all at the same time."

If we subscribe to this notion, I would then only have one top, one pair of trousers, one pair of shoes - basically, one of everything.

But I choose not to follow this particular advice.

Why?

She has more shoes than I do.

It just looks like I have more because she keeps passing her shoes on to me .

"Do as I say, not as I do"

It's hard to follow the advice of someone who is unwilling (or unable) to follow their own advice.
