l. o. v. e. <3


we use our hands to build and destroy, to hold and to hurt. with fingers we can love and care. two feet carry our souls through the miles. our backs shoulder everything from anguish, to contentment, to the happiness of ourselves and others. we harness the unique ability to express emotions through not only our voices but our bodies as well.


so what if our palms, our feet, arms, backs and faces; these weathered and worn works in progress could speak out? what would they say? we so very often vocalize with our posture and stance more than with our own voices at times it seems. and with this, we become far more vulnerable than any of us would like to admit when we realize that by someone watching our physical movements,our true selves can be exposed.
a movie was on one evening and in it this idea of consciously opening up ourselves to being vulnerable was considered. by becoming vulnerable it may bring us to a point of sacredness. for if we let ourselves be seen, then we might be lucky enough to see others in the same way; a truly beautiful and obviously sacred thing. so what are your hands, your hearts, and your shoulders saying? do they speak out one word or a novel of sentences,and are you ready for others to see?
