The preciousness of hands

 

Hands are precious. We have two, one or none and that's all we're gonna get.

They allow us to do so much: 

lift, grip, hold, mold, squeeze, pinch, wash, dry write, type, draw, paint, build, play instruments, scratch, snap, smooth, chop, cut, brush, comb, open, shut, lock, twist

Without them we could do none of these things. 

I have osteoarthritis in my hands. The pain makes doing these things difficult, sometimes impossible.

I love my hands. I do not take them for granted. Don't take yours for granted. They are precious.
