You can't say that this piece doesn't hit your heart! It is so illustrative! It really turns on that 'picture screen' in the front of your mind. By the title and various words, it made me think about Bill Wither's song "Grandma's Hands".

Wow! Your words are so true and well delivered. I know many Lillis who are in places like UAE, Italy, Singapore, and many other places. They sacrifice their families, their loves, themselves. Thank you for such a moving and relevant piec.
