our hands are pretty amazing. they can fix, we can fill them. carry a load. hold. push a button. cradle a spoon. wave a firecracker. keep something safe, or dry, or warm; they can be warmed themselves. hands can pray. or clap. or crack. or tighten or flex. or point. or celebrate or wave or rub a back or pinch a cheek. or dig, or bury, or unearth.
our hands help us be what we are and become what we're not. i like to think this is where we start—there's a little slice of the universe, with all its realities, its magic, its possibilities, in each of our hands.

beautifully said, we often tend to forget about simple things such as how useful and valuable our hands are.
