The Sock Rebellion

Do you wear the same color shirt every single day? The same style jeans? The same old pair of shoes? I didn't think so. Why, then, should you wear identical white socks every day of your life?

I haven't worn white socks in about two years now. Okay, wipe that strange look off your face--there's nothing wrong with that. I like to do things differently, to question what's normal. And why is it normal to wear white socks all the time? If people are going to see your socks, then they shouldn't look the same every day. They are just like any other article of clothing. Well, at least that's my take on it. After all, what fun is it for your socks to always look identical?

Some of my socks are solid colors, like blue or green or--my favorite color--purple! I also have flowers, happy faces, butterflies, stripes...and my very favorite pair of socks in the whole world, the ones with the frogs on them! Some of them are ankle socks, some are fold-down cuff socks, some are shin-length. And I have two really cool pairs of toe socks--they're like gloves for your feet.

So that's how I feel about socks. If you think I'm a little off now, then open your mind and try new things! I know in the long run the color of your socks seems like a trivial detail, but it's great to question things sometimes and set your own style. Colorful socks is just one little way I demonstrate my uniqueness, and I think one of the most important things in life is to be yourself!
