Guest post: Jerry E. Smith – Hand is a verb

Posted on February 27, 2017 by Sue Vincent

Between the hands is an awesome place.

There, you  have the power to:

Caress a loved one or strike out in anger.

Build up a mountain of brick, mortar and concrete or

Tear down a mountain of rock.

Create volumes of literature, paint myriads of art work,

Compose epic poetry and sonata’s of music.

Or…

Write really hateful words, build bombs, wield weapons

To spread fear and terror, hold cameras to record

Horrendous acts. You can hold down victims

While doing atrocious things to them,

OR…

You can reach out to lift up those who are down,

You can sooth the fears and hurts of the victims,

You can act preemptively to prevent abuses, and

You can create trust between peoples of vastly

Different backgrounds.

Of all these things you can do with your hands, which

Ones do you think will benefit you, your family and

Friends? Which actions will help ensure there is a

World for our descendents to inhabit?

It’s your choice.

      Thank you @Viv Drewa, I appreciate you sharing my words. I tried to post this gratitude using the email link, but it said this site was not functioning, so I hope that this time it will go through.
      Thank you once more. ♥
