Walk A Mile In My Shoes

If you walked a mile in my shoes....

Would you notice the smile on my face or all the pain it hides?

Would see a confident woman beaming with pride?

Would you find a friend who is always there for you?

Or would you walk away like others do?

If you walked a mile in my shoes...

Would you see a mom loving her children each day?

Would you see me as a failure right away?

Would you scorn this lady with her disabled child?

Or would you find it in your heart to go that extra mile?

If you walked a mile in my shoes...

Would you consider me hard working as I toil at night?

Would you see how I struggle to make things right?

Would you laugh at me because that's easy to do?

Or would you like to try on one of my shoes?

If you walked a mile in my shoes...

Would today be a way to start all things anew?

Would forgiveness come easy, quick, and true?

Would you decide it wasn't worth it and look the other way?

Or would you agree that the old slate is clean today?

If you walked a mile in my shoes...

Would the glass before you be half empty or half full?

Would your outlook on life be despair or hopeful?

Would you listen to me if I had something to say?

Or would you take off my shoe and just walk away?

If you walked a mile in my shoes...

Would you feel the love of those all around?

Would you find joy where it isn't usually found?

Would you make things hard and just not play?

Or would you decide it was worth it and want to stay?

If you walked a mile in my shoes...

Would you realize my struggles aren't much different than yours?

Would you find where the treasures of my heart are stored?

Would you shatter my heart to pieces screaming, "You Lose!"

Or would you like to walk a mile in both of my shoes?
