So, as some of you might have seen from my last topic entitled "I know I'm late, but is anyone else disgusted?", I have suddenly been sufferingfrom depression about my Jordans and the money I've spent on them. I have had success selling shoes locally on craigslist and a few of you on here havebought some from me via Paypal, (Thank you to those who did). I was able to sell my Grapes, Columbia XI's, Carmine's, Flint XIII's, and a fewothers. But today I finally did something with my shoes that made a greated impact on this earth than selling them could ever do.
I went to this shelter near the home where I grew up, its like a place where women who get abused by their husbands go with their kids, to avoid the husbandsfrom hurting them and i guess to avoid being found. I gave away alot of the crappy half of cdp's pack (15's 18's 19's 20's 21's), andmy White/orange/grey 8's from last year, my black/yellow low xi's, a bunch of other low xi's, my old beat up low vi's from 2001 or 2002 orwhatever, beat up black/silver v's, brand new never worn nelly spizikes and i believe the aqua 8's and a grip of low 1's from 2007. you guys shouldhave seen the look on the kids faces! it was like christmas! because some of the moms cant work due to whatever reason, so the kids have to wear old l.a. gearand stuff. so it was cool to brighten their day! even though some of the kids wear like size 8 and i wear 9.5-10.5 they said they could wear them anyways. Itwas kind of awkward though because i got the feeling some of the moms there thought i was better than them and thought they were poor, which isnt what ithought at all, just wanted to give them to someone who can actually appreciate them.
And i know some of you on here will give me crap for not giving away any real heat, but I still wanna sell some. and to me, whether I gave those kids a DS pairof Playoff 12's or a pair of dub zero's, it is still a big deal to them. Just my thought.
