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 ...

Why do you go barefoot?

by sharleen wl
a while ago someone asked a question on the reddit barefoot sub: "why do you go barefoot?" the following was my answer:
"i love the feeling of walking barefoot on different surfaces. from soft dirt and mud squishing between my toes to grass covered in morning dew to the cool floors of a supermarket on a warm summer day. it also allows me to better connect with nature and the world around me.
going barefoot also gives me the sense of freedom of not having my feet cooped up in restrictive socks and shoes which make them hot and sweaty.
ngl, in my case there's also the rebellious factor. i'm a free spirit who enjoys breaking norms, and going barefoot and getting my feet all dirty is one way to do it."
my love for going barefoot began when i was just a toddler and refused to keep my shoes on no matter how hard my parents (especially my mom) tried which drove them nuts. i would often get yelled at and sometimes even spanked for it. but that never made me like shoes or socks lol.
as i grew older my passion for going barefoot only grew stronger and my mom eventually relented. before i started to go barefoot in public i would often wander around my backyard in bare feet, exploring the world around me one step at a time. i loved the feeling of freedom and there was something special about the sensation of the ground against the skin of my soles that made me feel alive.
we lived in a small town surrounded by fields and wooded areas which i started to explore once i felt comfortable being barefoot in my backyard. every day i would wander through the woods, my bare feet touching the soft earth and the cool rocks. i also loved the feel of the sun on my face and the wind in my hair. all of that brought me closer to nature.
eventually i became confident enough to walk around barefoot where there's alot of people like grocery stores, malls, and even restaurants.
initially my family and friends expressed their concerns about the potential hazards of going barefoot like stepping on sharp objects, getting diseases or even looking "improper" but i disregarded them. i've developed a keen sense of balance and can navigate even the most uneven surfaces with ease. my feet have also become stronger and i'm able to walk longer distances sans footwear without experiencing discomfort. yes, my feet have gotten cut from stepping on broken glasses and splinters a few times but its no biggie. i was always able to take care of it myself without having to see a doctor. at most i would refrain from barefooting for a couple of days to let it heal (i would just wear flip flops but never shoes). i've always been healthy in general.
i've become known as the barefoot girl. even today my friends and relatives would sometimes tease me about it, saying that its gross or weird. but i don't give a fuck. i just smile and sometimes make faces at them lol. i'm determined to enjoy life on my own terms as long as i don't hurt anyone and that includes walking around barefoot pretty much everywhere.
i'm a free spirited girl who loves nothing more than feeling the earth beneath my feet. i'm always barefoot whenever i can no matter the weather or occasion and i don't care if my feet get dirty. occasionally people would stare at me and some would even make rude comments but again, i don't give a fuck. i never let their judgment get to me or prevent me from enjoying life. being free-spirited has it's challenges but its definitely worth it. the joys of going barefoot simply outweighs any discomfort i might face.
my love for going barefoot is not just a personal preference or just a phase like some people think; its a lifestyle. being barefoot allows me to connect myself more deeply to the world around me and appreciate the natural beauty of my surroundings. whether i'm walking on a beach, hiking through the woods or simply strolling through the city, i always feel more connected to nature and the earth when i'm barefoot.
sometimes it takes just one person to inspire others to try something new and different just like my big sister tania inspired me to start exploring the world barefoot, for which i'm grateful. while some people may scoff, others may get inspired and try to do it themselves. so if you have never gone barefoot before (especially in public), i encourage you to try it.
from paradise hawaii this is sharleen reminding you that life is magical, especially when your barefoot. so...
aloha and have a magical day!

Barefoot in mud
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 shopping at the mall with mom
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...
Going Barefoot at School
Girl barefoot at school story Going barefoot to/at school is quite common in some countries like Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, and India (see the picture at the bottom of the post). It was also quite prevalent in the US in the old days. A few elementary schools in Hawaii still allow their students to attend school in bare feet. Unfortunately however, most kids today are denied this wonderful experience. So can you blame them for cherishing every chance they've got to go barefoot at school even if only for a brief moment? My little sister Sharleen (nicknamed Lynn) and I went to a private elementary school with a rather strict dress code. We had to wear uniform everyday that included a tie and white closed shoes. White socks had to be worn at all times in the beginning. Being an avid barefooter, I always wanted to be barefoot as much as possible. So I would usually take off my tie along with my shoes and socks on the (city) bus, and walk barefoot home from the bus stop...
A Barefoot Nightmare - Those With No Shoes Please...
by Sharleen W.L. I just finish eating lunch in the cafetaria with 2 of my friends, and were heading to our first afternoon class. I'm barefoot as usual. One of my friends is wearing shoes and the other flip flops. It really feels great walking around campus in bare feet. As we get to the building, both my friends head towards the restroom and tell me they'll see me in class since I don't need to go. So I climb up the stairs to the 3rd floor where our classroom is. The floors in that building are really grimy but it feels good on my bare soles. There are already quite a few students in the classroom. This is a discussion class, so there are tables with a few chairs around them. I spot a table with no one sitting at it yet which is perfect as my friends and I can sit together. There's a nerdy looking guy sitting at the next table busy with his phone. As I sit down he looks at my bare feet but doesn't say anything. He then makes a call and starts talking on...
Going barefoot is gross
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...
