While on my way to the Apple Store at North Park Mall in Dallas, I was stopped by shoes.
Manolo Blahnik, Fashion Designer (Spain)
Besides the fact that I cannot wear high heels anymore, nor do I have a flamboyant lifetstyle, these shoes do make a fashion statement for women who can afford to wear high end shoes who may want to purchase them with its striking patriotic American Flag pattern. I thought to myself, did the fashion designer use his consciousness about immigration to America to create what women want? As a second generation American who grew up revering the American Flag, and as flag girl in grade school, I was taught, never let the American flag touch the ground. Now, I see very expensive shoes for sale that are made for walking on the ground. Which leads me to patterns:
"Human progress is neither automatic or inevitable...
Every step towards your goal of justice requires
sacrifice, suffering, and struggle; the tireless exhertions and
passionate concerns of dedicated individulas." --- Martin Luther King, Jr.
"The American Flag is the most recognized symbol
of freedom and democracy in the world." --- Virginia Foxx
Patterns
Neville Goddard, Author once said, your feelings create the pattern from which your world is fashioned, and a change of feeling is a change of pattern. Which leads me to think about how many people around the world want to create a life that begins with the American dream, home ownership?
Since the day Betsy Ross, flag girl, contributed to design the pattern for the American Flag, shifts in population, demographics, growth, and distribution of wealth has changed significantly. Economic advances allow most Americans to raise their standard of living and as population expands, so does the desire to have the best home one can afford, education for children, shoes, clothing, health, growth and opportunties.The major shift in population is causing many to create new patterns in their consiciousness that creates the desire to attain the right to move forward with home ownershiop by relocating and creating ideas for a better lifestyle.
