TOMS shoes is so important to me! Why? Well I think it is so awesome that someone can make a different to so many people through shoes. I mean most of us probably don't even know what kind of shoe our best friends wear because they just are not articles of clothing the average person thinks about the most. Better yet is that the founder of TOMS shoes makes this his occupation in life.
The people in South America and other countries that TOMS takes shoes to all have high risks of contracting diseases through their feet. The inhabits of these parts of the world are not in good health and this cause seriously effects the lives of these people. If you have never looked on toms.com or any other website that gives info on the diseases these peoples can get then you should because they are life threatening.
I have had a passion burning in my for quite some time now to travel the world reaching out to others. From my perspective I want to reach out to them and share the Word of God. There is just so much hurt and brokenness on this earth and I just want to do all that I can to help.
Buying TOMS is one sure way to do this if you also have a passion for others who do not have the same luxuries as us. Even if you do not have the "guts" or the time or even the willingness to go over to other countries and work side by side with others who need our help TOMS is that way to be involved either way.

This is absolutely ridiculous
I have forgotten the last two blogs now and it is irritating the heck out of me. I have written it down several times and heard Stephanie talk about almost every day of class. For some reason I stil cannot remember to write the blog by the due date. So I am doing this one ahead of time in frustration
I have to ask myself, "what is it that causes me to not remember this?" I think the answer comes in routine. I work 26 hours per week, 16 credit hours for school, and many other church related activities. I have very little time where I am just sitting down relaxing and it is very hard for me to get into any sort of routine with some things because I do not do them every day. A routine is very important in someone's day that is very busy, because with out it something simple, like writing a blog on time, can be easily forgotten.
I think that one affective would be to ask a close family member or friend to make the person sit down and do the work they need to do. This way would be most effective because having a person remind someone is more likely to trigger some sort of sense of his or her conscience. They may start thinking, "If (insert name here) told me I need to do this then I really should do it." On the other hand, for those who are more stubborn, a different approach would be to practice it ahead of time. If someone knows they are going to have a busy week it would be more effective to make a point to practice doing the task at a certain time of day each day or week instead of waiting to see when he or she has free time.
