Imprinted footprints are all what is left from everybody who passes the path of life… This is a fact that can't be denied by anybody, dead or alive, although each footprint has its own characteristics… own depth… own destination… and own story… some footprints are imprinted deeper than others…Some footprints are steadier than others … But at the end, we all in a way or another have left our tracks behind… For most of us, all what we want is to have bottomless and steady traces… As deep imprinted footprints for everybody means determination… passion… power… strength…success… As always, we take what we are offered, and searching beyond all what is seen by our bare eyes isn't something that we are good at… Have you ever thought that the trepidation of facing the unknown or stepping one step forward might be the cause of the paused stand for some of us? Have you ever thought that the bottomless footprints might give you a clue that the people behind are drowning in their spot? Have you ever thought that the steadiness of some footprint means that the people behind have their eyes covered and simply know no other way to go? Have you ever thought that the consistent footprints might be a clue of a lost soul that has to live in denial and move towards alternatives rather than dreams? Some people do what they have to do… They have to show the whole world that they are successful and they doing great after what they have been going through… But, loosing themselves in the process makes all their footprints pointless, and hollow… Some people don't know what they want to do… They stand still in their position, fearing to be someone or something, fearing to contribute, fearing to fail… So, the pauses which dig their footprints deep in the solid ground aren't the natural results of wisdom, but are for sure a consequence of discrepancy… Not all rooted footprints have rebel hearts behind, and not all shallow footprints hold a surrendered spirit… So, for me, I'd rather have shallow footprints and a fulfilled life and soul, rather than having only footprints that talk about an unforgettable glory and a spectacular success…

Totally agree with you... we have so many boundries that we have to be aware of...
I was trying to transfer an idea here, some people around us expect so much from us, and in the way, we sort of loose ourselves and dreams, but all what they see is that we became what they wanted, and our footprints are in the way they wanted...
You know, I have a special friend who reads my blog, but doesn't comment and guess what? He liked your comment and he totally agrees with you...

I’d rather walk a path that no one walked before and I leave my own footprints, than going over someone else’s footprints , but in the end it’s all the same , it doesn’t matter what you do cause someday you’ll all you’re footprints will be washed away , it will fade , so button line is : walk the path that would make you happy , and not the path that people tell you to walk .

Wow!! i have been thinking about this but in a different way.
i guess fantasia, we're not really taught to follow our passion and make our own choices and decisions.
we're taught to follow and not to lead, we are bound by some aspects of our culture and society that hold some of us back.
I want what you said too!! :)
