Beautiful Hands

November 23, 2011

{Photo taken by my husband earlier this year.}

This is the kind of Friend you are:

Without making me realize my soul’s
anguished history,

you slip into my house at night and,
while I am sleeping,

you silently carry off all my suffering
and sordid past in your beautiful
hands.

~Hafiz

    This poem is so poignant… thank you for sharing this along with this luscious photograph: I have a thing for contrast and with green being my fave color…well, this just takes me to a very happy place!

    Also, just received my “you are” card from you today – it’s ‘extraordinary’! I just love this idea and am going to start doing something like this in cards I give to my family and friends. Thank you for doing this!

    Happy Thanksgiving to you & yours!
