I have Two Hands

Yeasterday was one of those “busy days at the university”. The graduation souvenir programs arrived at 10am— and we had to put some addendum. Our student interns and I, together with other students and co-workers, spend the whole afternoon at the administration to collate and fix the program paper for today’s graduatation rites…

While doing some pasting and cutting, I was at the same time blurting my thoughts out loud. I was telling the people in the room that “God should have given us more than two hands so that we could accomplish more today.” Some laughed and said that they were contented with only two hands… On the other hand, I was imagining myself with four or more hands doing the cutting and pasting.

Again i blurrted out, “the monkey can use his feet to hold things, we should have feet like that of the monkey.”

I smiled–

Looking at my other companions who were busy cutting and pasting, I thanked God because he have me both my hands to work with other people. I guess, this is one reason why God had to give us only two hands- so that we do not need to over burden ourselves with work that can be shared with others through teamwork.
