Hands

Did you ever think about how much your hands know? Where they were, what they touched, what they remember, what they can do, what tools were made just for them? 
Take a moment and just look carefully at them. What experiences and memories are resurrected? What history in their scars and blemishes and veins and bony landscape?
What they’ve touched and felt is recorded in the sensory memory and can be pulled up with a word. The hands become in many ways the historians of the body.
