The Passion of the Old Cobbler
How beautiful it is to see an old man still having a lot of passion for his skills, dedicated and energetic. He doesn't really care about what people have to say behind him because in all he loves what his doing, he seems to see the world in a different way, clouded with a majestic keb and molding hearts of creativity broadly.
With a smile on his face, one don't need to blink because he will be done in no time and just to let you know this amazing skill is shoe making, fixing different brands without bands, curving every side without a curse , hitting every pin without conflict and perfecting all sides with amazing slides. Shoe making is a skill that holds honor letting everyone either old, young or little take a step without backing out easily, getting greater height in standing on the heels.
In this generation it is very hard to still see devoted elders still working hard on showing their skills instead they sit at the side on their growling chair moving back and forth carrying their grandchildren. Some elders think that it is all over, done working at a particular age without knowing that deep down there is joy in sharing their physical skills by working it out, not for being the talk of the town but telling a story to the ones around you and inspiring the little ones.
Most elders nowadays feel too big doing things that helped them out financially in their youth days because they feel it is no more a part of them and it's not worth being done anymore. For this cobbler, it is his passion, his skills and his Life. He finds joy in repairing shoes and he puts a smile on the face of his customers, he makes sure he keeps them engaged.
A man who doesn't see himself as a weakling even at an old age,he purses what he loves and is ever ready to give in all his strength, those mingling muscles still standing strong and his eyes so focused on the shoes like never before getting to sew all the leather to be firm and putting on the designs with all perfection, he doesn't have a need to complain because he knows that the result he has gotten is so undescribable, unwavering and amicable.
An old man appreciating his work and showing it off as a piece of art that is highly recommendable with his personal signature, letting the world know that it is more than repairs and makes but getting solutions at all time.
His tools are still very firm and good looking because he had not joked around with them but treasured them like a precious stone. he brought them out one after the other while rubbing his hands around it to make sure nothing had gone wrong with any part of his tool.
While he was working he mentioned a short story saying of how he went through hard times before getting each of his working tools and how he couldn't even feel secure borrowing it to his fellow shoe maker for use because he was scared it would get lost or one part would malfunction, it was really amazing listening to his tales because each of the tool had a story behind them.
