My Old Sandals

The first step to being a minimalist isn't to throw stuff out, but to use it up.

A few days ago, I realized that the cork on my sandals was crumbling away under my heels and big toes, that I'd worn all the way through the sole at the heel on one sandal, and almost all the way through on the other.

It feels good, having waited until my old sandals were really used up before buying a new pair. Hopefully my new pair will last longer if I take proper care of them.
