Every time I get new shoes, I go through the same thing. I end up spending the next two weeks with raw sores on the back of my ankles. Until my feet get used to the shape, size, and feel of the new shoes, the skin on the back of my foot rubs itself open and bleeds. I suppose that could be an analogy for change in general. I always end up getting worn a bit thin until I can adjust, settle into, and grow comfortable in the new situation. Things heal up quickly, though, and I completely forget about the adjustment until the next time I find myself in a new pair of shoes.
I'm going to dig out my band-aids before I walk to work tomorrow...
