An Artist's Hands


Have you ever watched an artist paint? The fluid motion of their hands as they move over the canvas, magically, draws out a stunning picture from the bland background creating a true work of art.

Similarly, a skilled doctor can manipulate parts of the outer body by pressing and pulling with their hands and fingers to help heal a person, astonishingly, without ever seeing the inner-dynamics that need care.

The knowing hands of a trained mechanic, tinkering and fiddling with parts and pieces of an engine is able to incredibly detect and solve problems in a vehicle that oftentimes, lies deep within the undercarriage of an engine.

Whatever your skills and talents are, be proud of what you are able to do. Comparing yourself to anybody else is a waste of time! We are all given different and unique abilities. A Doctor’s skills are of no use when your car breaks down. The understanding of the present governmental laws by a Lawyer is useless when frying chicken for dinner. And, a Therapist’s knowledge of human behavior is inadequate when piloting an airplane. Be proud of what you are able to contribute and help others anytime your gift is needed.

Remember, what you DO is not who you ARE. It is simply your endowment to the universe.

So, on that note, the quote of the day is:

“Create something beautiful in your life with the talents that you have been gifted.” tc
