By Bill Mcilmail

These shoes were provided for me at a former job. They are a size too big, so I wear double socks. They have taken me into my current job and have kept me standing for about ten hours each and every day. Not the prettiest but certainly durable and safe with steel toes.

If shoes make the man, then I am a working man.

I believe in the salvation of Jesus Christ and his righteousness. I love almost everybody. Both my natural family and the family of friends.

I fear not being able to finish my life strong and in relatively good health.


ABOUT THE MY SHOES PROJECT

There’s so much that supposedly divides us as Americans.

The purpose of My Shoes is to highlight one of the many practical basics (everyone wears shoes!) that we have in common.
