Word for the Day - 2020

 Hand

From Wikipedia: A hand is the part of the body at the end of an arm. Most humans have two hands. Each hand usually has four fingers and a thumb. On the inside of the hand is the palm. The five bones inside this part of the hand are called metacarpals. The wrist connects the hand to the arm. The hand has 27 bones including the wrist bones.  An adult hand weighs about 1 pound.

Such technical information when a hand is so much more than the technical.

    In the picture I noticed the hands touching, the hands loving, the hand working at holding something, and the hands gesturing. 

A hand serves so many different functions. 

The picture is my daughter and grandson, plus their dog at the beach this past week.

My hands were part of the hugs, the preparing of food, the picking up rocks on the beach,

and the hands in prayer.
