Tips and toes – Fingers and Feet – Fingerprints and Footsteps …… I wonder why language refers to achievements in terms of “footsteps in time.”
Is it because they exert more pressure, with all the body weight that they carry? Fingers are more nimble, creative, refined and talented and can do so much, while feet could only dance, kick, stomp, walk or run. Feet could walk over others, and the memories that they leave are negative. Fingers are supported by the palm, and can yet, function independently.
Is there a message in there for us? It needs force to succeed and be remembered, not just work. I wish to leave my fingerprints on the life that I touch, not footsteps in time.
