Steps that Hold Stories

These shoes are not just things โ€” they hold steps, paths, and stories that quietly stay within memory. ๐Ÿ‘ฃ

Steps that Hold Stories

Iโ€™ve always believed that every step carries its own story.
I created this sketch because I wanted to capture the meaning behind something we often take for granted โ€” a pair of shoes.

For most people, shoes are simply objects we wear every day.
But to me, they are silent witnesses to lifeโ€™s journey.
They know the exhaustion of running toward something, and the calm of slowing down to rest.
Every line and texture I drew became traces of time โ€” reminders of places Iโ€™ve been, dreams Iโ€™ve chased, and feelings Iโ€™ve left along the way.

Through this work, I want to remind myself that not every journey has to be grand to be meaningful.
Sometimes, the smallest steps are the most honest ones.
And within every step, thereโ€™s always a story waiting to be remembered. ๐Ÿ‘ฃ
