SEC-S13/W3 | "Bare Feet 🐾"
Hey Steemian friends!
I don't know how strange it might seem to a Westerner or someone from a developed country, but for us Sri Lankans, walking barefoot is as regular as breathing. So let me share my experiences and thoughts on the topic of "Bare Feet."

👉 Do you like walking barefoot? Explain your reasons. |

I absolutely love walking barefoot! Then you can feel everything beneath your feet and that is remarkable. Specially walking in the grasses like “Grona triflora”, or on the soft sands of the beach is one of my favourite things to do. These simple things have a lot of benefits to our health because when the feet touch the ground, they stimulate our neuron system and boost our immunity.

However, roads with rocky terrain can be challenging to walk without slippers or shoes. Also, on hot days Sri Lankan Road will feel like a hot frying pan, on such days I don’t anyone to recommend to walk barefoot unless they want to feel the burn!
👉 How important is taking care of your feet? |

👉 What do you think of the saying “Don't walk barefoot, parasites can get in”? |
---|
This is true to some extent especially in areas with poor sanitation and hygiene. I guess nobody wants to expose ourselves into such risk.
However, this is not the case in many places we usually visit. We shouldn't be overly cautious based on this statement. The key is to assess the environment first and then if it's a safe and clean place, feel free to kick off your shoes and enjoy the real soil, grass and truly experience the world around.

👉 What do you think of a world without shoes? |

A world without shoes? That sounds pretty chaotic to me! As I mentioned earlier, our roads can feel like a hot pan on a sunny day which can fry an egg, and this doesn't just apply to us who live close to the equator. Even in cold weather, shoes are essential because they help us maintain our body heat keeping us warm. Without proper protection for our feet, going outside would be a daunting task.

Thanks for the invite dear friend and your post is a very good one. I am from the tropics of Africa and I love walking barefoot everyday. Having my feet feel the earth is something special to me and I love it so much.
Hahahaaaah....🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣... My ribs. Really the sun is overhead to the lever of trying more than an egg. We need shoes as it protects our feet, keeps us sharp and cute in our outfits and also eases our movement.
Good luck in the contest
We literally have sunny side up roads! 🍳🤣

Wow! thank you that wonderful comment. I do spent sometime get into the topic and read numerous time until I satisfied with my effort. Thank you again for this lovely comment 💗
I share with your feelings of walking barefoot. It does help a lot mentally too and makes one comfortable especially walking on a grass. The only time this can prove challenging as you've said is when walking on rocky grounds on in areas that are poorly sanitized. You can easily get infected. It's also interesting to know the feet has such structures as outlined in your picture. Shoes too are very much valuable because as you've said, it' not just functional but adds to one's beauty.
Please permit me to ask if you prefer walking barefoot in your home or your prefer wearing a palms?
Home, beach, grassy fields, basically anywhere I can kick off my shoes 😃 I'm all in for it! Thanks for the thorough comment and visiting my blog friend.
Appreciated and noted
Thank you, friend!
