10 & 2

I don't how I came to this or if it's even true, but it occurred to me today that people who walk with their toes pointed out are naturally happier people. When contrasted with the demeanors of people you may see walking on the street with bowed legs, or even the straight steppers, it just seems to me that people that stroll with an open gait are generally more congenial folk. Does anyone agree? Think about it: you see a guy skulking down the avenue with his toes pointed in. He mostly walks on the balls of his feet; maybe he drags his heels. Almost always these people are hunched over a bit, their shoulders getting across the finish line before their hips. Do they ever have a smile on their faces? Now imagine that rotund guy walking on his heels. His toes are pointing 10 & 2. That guy is always smiling. That guy is open to whatever life is going to throw at him on his walk. His feet do not present a defensive posture.

Is there anything to this? Because when it occurred to me it felt like I had uncovered some secret of life that I never heard anyone else talk about. Now I'll be examining every man, woman and child and the way they perambulate. If you got to the end of this post I'm betting you'll do the same.

Feedback appreciated.
