My hands



On such an auspicious day, I think it is just right if I were to express gratitude to one particular part of my body, which is my pair of hands. Yup, the pair of hands in the pic above belongs to mine, taken about 2 years ago. This print finally was chosen as the sample for a group project then, probably I could bend those fingers better, ahaha..

So, yes, I always find it so personal when it comes to the hands. Those people who worked with me before know the size of my hands and they always make sure I have the correct size of gloves. Indeed very detail and thoughtful of them. The hands are used for many physical activities and they are the most vulnerable part as well.

Persistent exposure to chemicals such as the soup and even frequent washings can damage the texture of the skin. Thus I have to use extra aqueous cream to moisten them, for medical purpose okay,..coz it really hurts when the skin is peeling off and dry.

What is so great about the size then? Recently I have been doing quite alot of procedures. And the difficult part were made easier when I could maintain a good grasp with these hands. While some people were complaining how difficult to have a firm grasp, I find mine to be very accommodating. So, who says size does not matter...

Happy Vesak Day everyone!
