what would happen if
I put all my shoes away?
obstacle course gone!

who can clear the path
but the one who wants to hike?
the trail is open

There’s Sufi tale told by Idries Shah in ‘The Commanding Self’: In it a man would not part with his old, worn-out sandals. They started to cause him all sorts of troubles. But when he finally tried to get rid of them, he was always unsuccessful… This saga of trials and tribulations lasted until, exasperated, he decided to buy a new pair. And, as if by some magic, all problems with the old pair of sandals ceased on the spot.
