Just overheard a story from Kiss online Radio (a Taiwanese radio station):
A king goes to suburban area to see what’s going on around his kingdom. As he is walking, the bumpy and rough road is killing his sensitive feet.
After he returns to the palace, he announces that every road in the kingdom has to be paved with leather.
However, during a period of time, people find that, to pave leather on the road is not only costing lots of money, but also running out of leather in the country.
One vassal suggests: “instead of paving all the road with leather, why not pave the leather under the sole?” turns out, the idea works well and save lots of resources for the kingdom.
It is said, that is the origin of the leather shoe.
Maybe we cannot have the world adjusts only for us, but we can improve ourselves for a better living. =)

Merry Christmas everyone!
