Hands

Imagine a world that did not and could not have the human touch…
In a world where touching, feeling, embrace are what feeds the mind, body and soul…
Imagine being brought up by a surrogate and fixated object as your examples for imprinting or for having a role model you cling on to for comfort; but in return, no return embrace of comfort and warmth…
Imagine being of one mind around the world addressing the social issues calling for the linking of hands as a symbol and call for unity…
Imagine the impact of giving the “High Five” clap and greeting…
In an ever increasing society that lives and survives on the common touch…
Imagine dating without holding hands first, before the kiss…
Imagine the kiss without the embrace and just lips touching…
Imagine a world without an outreaching hand…
Imagine a world without the comfort of a hand on or around your shoulder…
Imagine the combination of a hand for lifting you up and a word to strengthen your stance…
Imagine your being without a touch and only a voice…
The body, mind and spirit are nurtured by one main sensory perception…..” touch”, (conhumanness, and oneness) all of which feeds our need for normalcy and acceptance…
Imagine having to train your feet to take the place of your hands…
Pick up new born babies, children to show expressions of love and greetings…
Feet to hold and rotate the jump ropes for children’s play…
Feet in place of hands… or mouth in place of both…
We take for granted the importance of small and large tasks used by our hand(s)
What will we do when we reach out to touch other’s that have gone through life without arms or limbs…?
Would it break the chain of love, the cycle of touch, nurturing lost to feeling and embrace…?
To wave hello, to point to God, to give back change… Thank God for his goodness and mercy!
