The Shoes that Listened to the Heart
 
A Story of Empathy, Feelings… and the Magic of Walking in Someone Else’s Steps
 
By Heileny Suárez · A Spiralverse™ Edition
 
A poetic children’s story about empathy, emotions, and the gentle magic of understanding others.
Meet Lía…
 
In an ordinary day filled with ordinary noise,
Lía finds something extraordinary.
Inside a simple box of wind,
she discovers a pair of golden shoes.
These are not shoes for running fast.
They are shoes that listen.
With every step, they allow Lía to feel what others feel,
loneliness, anger, fear, sadness, joy,
and to understand that every heart walks its own path.
As Lía steps into different moments of childhood life,
she learns a powerful truth:
Empathy doesn’t change others.
It changes how we see them.
