Roseanne snapped this photo of her dear mother's hands while she was napping...and I have her permission to share it with you. It brought tears to my eyes because it's so beautiful......and it triggers memories of the older women that have been in my life...and their beautiful hands.
Think about the stories in these hands.They've held babies and wiped tears. They've stitched on buttons....and picked flowers. There is so much wisdom and strength...in these beautiful hands.

oh my gosh! Roseanne and MaryAnn, so beautiful and poignant. Thank you. 🙏🏼
ReplyDeleteThanks Dotty...and thank you Roseanne. I am touched every time I look at it.
DeleteHow quietly beautiful - a meditation in a photo. Thank you so much for sharing this.
ReplyDeleteMeditation in a photo....perfect description! Thanks Judy!
DeleteB, I wondered when I saw the pic if these might be Elena Rose’s peaceful hands. . . It wasn’t til now that I read the comments fr your friends. Yes! A beautiful meditation; especially for those, like me, who are close to your Mom’s age. Thank you for your gift. Cathie
ReplyDeleteYou know Elena Rose? I was just smitten with the story that is in these hands. So beautiful! Thank you Cathie.
