"Shoe Is On The Other Foot".......
Circumstances have changed or if circumstances were to change between two people. Sidebar: This saying began life as the boot is on the other leg, appearing in print in the mid-nineteenth century. Putting the left shoe on the right foot would, of course, entail considerable discomfort, a meaning retained in the metaphor, which implies “See how you like being in my place.” Winston Churchill used it in My African Journal (1908) |
