The Bunny, The Witch, and The Barefoot Angel

by Tania WL One day my little sister Sharleen (when she was in 4th grade) went on a field trip to a forest reserve here on the island. It was really beautiful, and the weather was perfect. It was a little cool and sort of misty up in the mountains. Sharleen really loves nature, so while her friends were taking a break and playing games, she decided to take a walk along the creek and see what interesting things she could find. She felt her feet were getting hot and sweaty, so she sat down, untied her shoes, and took 'em off. Since she wasn't wearing socks, she was immediately barefoot. Aahh...it felt fantastic! That was actually against the rule since she was at a school function and wearing her uniform, but she didn't give a fuck. Her feet had to be free in such a wonderful place! She figured if she got caught, she would just apologize. No big thing. She didn't want to carry her shoes around either, so she just left them on the ground. She would put them back on ...

Barefoot in mud

Image
by sharleen wl a couple of days ago there was a discussion on the reddit barefoot sub about being barefoot in mud. the op wrote: "i just love it when the mud oozes up between the toes and covers my feet." i love being barefoot in mud too but i don't get to do it very often. however this reminds me of my experience when i was a kid around 12 years old. our family was on vacation and staying at a mountain resort. one morning as i woke up i stepped out the back door. the morning was warm and the air smelled faintly of tropical flowers. i stood on the edge of the meadow behind the resort, my bare toes sinking into the soft grass. "i'm glad i don't have anything on my feet," i thought to myself with a grin, brushing my hair out of my face. so i set off toward the far end of the meadow where a trail dipped down into the woods. the ground was cool and damp from last night's rain and before long my feet were speckled with mud. the deeper i went the messier i...

Barefoot in Asian culture

Image
by sharleen wl  so there have been like a number of discussions in the reddit barefoot sub about going barefoot and the asian culture. some of the popular questions have been like 'why don't you see very many asians go barefoot in public?' and 'what is it like to go barefoot in asia (or name a specific country)?' or 'i'm planning to go to (a specific asian country) and wanna know if i should go barefoot in public there.' as an asian girl i find this topic interesting. so lets talk about it a little. barefoot asian girl with filthy feet across many asian cultures, going barefoot is far more than a matter of comfort - it's a gesture rich with cultural meaning, spiritual symbolism, and centuries-old tradition.  going barefoot as a sign of respect   in countries like japan, korea, india, thailand, and much of southeast asia, removing one’s shoes before entering a home is a deeply ingrained custom. bare feet - or feet in socks or house slippers - are seen...

Magical Barefoot Halloween

Image
by sharleen wl halloween and going barefoot - 2 of my favorite things. the things that make this life magical. i'm in my 20s now and i'm the same free-spirited soul i've been as a kid. only now i'm a bit more independent and i ain't about to let my love for the spooky season or my barefoot lifestyle fade away. in fact these passions have only grown with me. every october my excitement for halloween builds up like clockwork and i start planning my costume well in advance. this year i had the privilege of spending my favorite holiday in a rural area in washington state (like an hour from seattle) visiting emily, a good friend from college. the air is cool and crisp there in october which is really fitting unlike back home where it stays warm. the feeling of stepping barefoot onto the cold autumn ground was heavenly. although hawaii is paradise in many ways, this is something i miss out on. i had decided to dress as a forest fairy, a sort of mystical wanderer who draws...

Barefoot in public restrooms

Image
by sharleen wl a while back there was a post on reddit by a guy who said he was getting more and more comfortable going barefoot in public. he had gone barefoot to grocery stores multiple times and also to gas stations. but one day he saw another person walking barefoot into a gas station restroom and he thought it was gross and said he couldn't bring himself to do that. so he was asking whether he was right thinking that way. some say there's alot of "ick factor" in going barefoot in public restrooms. so its more like psychological as there's nothing really harmful on whatever you might step on on the floor as long as your sole skin is intact. others say it is indeed gross but you can wash your feet once you get home or you can carry some wet wipes. i had to chime in so this is what i basically said. "its more of a personal choice. like some people (like myself) love walking on mud but others not so much. some love squishing bugs with their bare soles while...

a barefoot girl's story going shopping with her strict religious mom by sharleen wl this is a rather long post but a pretty fun story. so i want you to get comfortable. get your favorite drink, maybe play some soft music, be barefooted (if you aren't already), take off all your clo... oops,  i'm getting carried away. i mean, you don't have to do that. unless your like me of course, lol. anyway, relax and enjoy! my dad is away on a business trip and my mom is home alone. so yesterday she called me and asked if i would wanna go shopping at the mall with her today (saturday). i love shopping so i said sure. she knows that i'm a barefooter and has kinda accepted the fact, so going barefoot to the mall with her shouldn't be an issue. i wake up a little earlier this morning cuz i wanna eat breakfast before going shopping. need the extra energy. the temperature this morning is 61 F which is cold for hawaii. i slept with my windows closed but i still feel a little cold...

Barefoot at the farmers market

Image
a carefree barefoot lifestyle in paradise hawaii by sharleen wl i wake up this morning as the sun shines through my bedroom window and i hear the birds chirping. its satrurday and i don't have to work. i've been wanting to go to our town's farmers market which i don't get to do very often and today seems like a perfect day. so i walk to the bathroom to quickly brush my teeth and wash my face. i don't even comb or brush my hair cuz hey, its the weekend and i kinda like the messy hair look. after putting on a pair of shorts, a crop top and my nerdy glasses i step out of my apartment. barefoot of course. yep, messy hair, nerdy glasses and bare feet. what a great combination lol. there's a lot of big trees in my apartment complex and alot of birds which i enjoy watching. with that many birds there's quite a bit of shit on the ground which i likely step on but i don't really care. its all part of being in nature and living the barefoot lifestyle. its a sunny...

Going barefoot is gross

Image
by sharleen wl 'going barefoot is gross!' that's what i often hear from people when they first learn about my barefoot lifestyle or see me walking around in dirty bare feet. i don't only hear this from strangers but even some of my friends say it on occasion. in the beginning i would be embarrassed and would be somewhat reluctant to go barefoot in public. but at this point i no longer care. in fact i wear it as a badge of honor. i'm a free spirit, i live life the way i like it and don't worry about what other people say. gotta admit, personal hygiene isn't always my top priority (you may have already known this from many of my posts haha!). so i may be gross but i'm healthy and i live a fun and happy life and to me that's all that matters. so for fun i decided to experiment with ai. the following was written by chat gpt. ya, you can tell it wasn't written by me cuz the grammer and spelling are perfect lol. but don't worry it won't replac...
