ARE NOT THE HANDS OF A PHOTOGRAPHER HEALING HANDS WHEN...

Are not the hands of a Photographer HEALING HANDS when as they walk amidst the rubble, with death and destruction all around them, bodies flattened beneath tons of collapsed concrete and steel, their brilliant eyes catch a flash of light, a movement of the dust so strewn, and scream from their lips for help anew; "Help here, come quick, come near, there's someone here, HELP ME HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Help arrives, and mountains move, a LIFE is saved from beneath what went BOOM, and caught on film for all the World to rejoice, a young Marine now with voice; "THANK-YOU!" Are not the hands of such a Photographer HEALING HANDS for returning HOPE, when HOPE thought lost, and capturing the moment for all to see?

Are not the hands of a Photographer HEALING HANDS when their photos show those returned "home" from war; be they safe or be they dead, no more questions for their Newly Wed? Answers given, proof in hand, hearts relieved and understand!

Are not the hands of a Photographer HEALING HANDS when the photo they took of one so small now missing, is used and plastered from coast to coast, and the child is found safe and returned to home?

Are not the hands of a Photographer HEALING HANDS when capturing the birth of a healthy newborn child?

Are not the hands of a Photographer HEALING HANDS when they show a victim from where they came, to where they are now with life renewed, and all the faces of those who cared?

Are not the hands of a Photographer HEALING HANDS when they capture forever for all the World to see; grace and beauty, power and might, those who stand and put up a fight, landscapes, buildings, the Sun and the Moon, precious moments dear to heart, little Bobby's first time fart?

Are not the hands of a Photographer HEALING HANDS when their photos bring together those close of heart, separated by distance or gone, now departed?

Are not the hands of a Photographer HEALING HANDS when their photos help restore FAITH, and BELIEF?

Are not the hands of a Photographer HEALING HANDS when their photos show a house, a school, a town rebuilt?

Are not the hands of a Photographer HEALING HANDS when their photos show Families united in love and purpose be?

And if these be so, have not GOD'S HANDS been at work as well?

We are all significant, each and every one, WE all have HANDS that can HEAL if WE hear that which is within OUR heart and choose to listen.

DARE TO BE DIFFERENT, DARE TO BE TRUE, DARE TO BE BOLD, DARE TO BE YOU! For YOU are significant!

Shall WE begin?
