| dai stitching my loafer! |
It hasn't been a week since I have bought my cute loafers. It was on sale so i bought it. Honestly speaking, i had my eyes on them since a long time and I was finding it hard to decide whether to buy it or not. But the flats that I bought about two weeks ago is counting its last breathe. You know, goods these days are not supposed to be called goods. They should be called "bads" instead. Right, so I bought this loafer because my silver flats were already in a state to be dumped. I even swore that I would spend my whole summer or whatever woth this loafer. BUT today, it was rainy and i was with my aunt around New road and off starts coming the sole of the shoe. Am i not damned? Why does the shoes I like and buy betray me the next day I buy them? Arrrggghhh. So my aunt and me go to the new road's area where there are alot of cobblers and i give my shoes to be sewed. The old man said it will cost Rs 80 and with my approval they start the work while I start viewing and analyzing the area.
Cobblers from different age and area are there. They talk, work,strt into emptiness and joke around with themselves. I start to think what is their actual income, what are the reasons that they are like that, how does they feel to touch and polish others shoes, is it their family profession, do they make a livelihood out of it, are they stisfied with their job, is the amount paid by their customers enough for them???
A lot of questions were hittig on me while I sat there and waited for my shoes to be stitched. So that time my thoughts were finding what their thoughts were!!
