Thanks for reading and sitting with the story, and you absolutely do need to place feet on Moroccan soil.

“The hands are often our principal teachers in how to hold tightly to what is meaningful.”

I really like how lovely this particular line solidifies the entire piece. I never thought of our hands in such a way, which makes them even more valuable and appreciated.

“My hands are older than me, in a way. They know and have seen things that I have not. They are attracted to tiger’s eye, citrine, gold. They are attractive for those who want to wander. They speak to family and strangers alike.” Beautiful!

I’ve been seeing so many signs about Morocco lately — what a beautiful synchronicity to soak up your experience before visiting. As always, your writing captivates me & leaves me with plenty of nourishment. Looking at my own hands, and others, with more reverence and awe. Thank you for this lovely piece, and the way you capture it through photography as well is absolutely stunning. 💛
