This quote is both funny and true. I think to add your own twist though, you should change mile to another form of mesurement. I have nothing bad to say at all. Great Job!

I see where you’re going with this, but the logic is not quite there. Are you trying to say “If I had to walk a mile in someone else’s shoes, with my luck the person would have been wearing high heels”? If you mean something else, then I don’t understand. The way it reads right now, the relationship between your two clauses is vague.

Proofreading note:
but, that person (comma comes before the conjunction, not after)

Eh. Ok try, but, in the end, it’s not funny because there’s no context for the high heels.  What does it mean?  ”I would walk a mile in someone else’s shoes, but not if they wear high heels.”  That would be more precise and say something (high heels suck, a woman’s life is hard, etc…)  As you’ve got it here, it’s not clear at all what you really mean, or why we should laugh.

It doesn’t make me smile – it makes me feel stupid ‘cause I don’t get it… Are you saying that you wouldn’t like to be a woman?
The whole purpose of walking in someone else’s shoes is to get a feel for what it’s like to be someone else, to live a different lifestyle. But it’s like you’ve already made up your mind – closed it.

HAhahahahaha! Love this :} Fun, cute and pithy! I’d like the end to be:
but that person would probably wear Jimmy Choos- that would make me laugh harder, and it might add an extra element to the quote. Great job!

Really good. trully a nice quote, and i just have to laugh(and i am still smiling) while reading this. Nice little punch line, yet with so much meaing to it as well.
I like that kind of thing, becasue it gets in point across ina funny, not boring way and thus makes more people read it and get it.

Nice one!

Great quote, made me laugh too! You might drop the word worn to keep it in the present.

Clever. I suppose it could be worse. In the old days, Shoes didn’t really come in different sizes. Or you could have worn wooden shoes. Or the road could be one of those thousand year old cobblestone streets in Europe.

Ah, the irony of life.

Very simply put, and excellently done.
