A few years ago, when my mother was visiting the city where I worked, she asked me to go shopping with her because she needed a new dress. I don’t like to go shopping with other people because I’m not a patient person, but we set off for the mall together at last. We visited nearly every store that sold ladies’ dresser, and my mother tried on one after another, rejecting them all. As the day went on, I grew tired of it and my mother grew frustrated. Finally at our last stop, my mother tried on a lovely blue three-piece dress. The dress had a bow at the neckline, and as I stood in the dressing room with her, I watched as she tired, with much difficulty, to tie the bow. Her hands were so badly disabled from a serious disease that she couldn’t do it. Immediately, my impatience gave in to an overwhelming wave of sympathy for her. I turned away, trying to hide the tears that I couldn’t keep back.After a while, I turned back to tie the bow for her. The dress was beautiful, and she bought it. Our shopping trip was over, but the event was impressed on my memory. For the rest of the day, my mind kept returning to that that moment in the dressing room and to the vision of my mother’s hands trying to tie that bow. Those loving hands that had fed me, bathed me, dressed me, caressed and comforted me, and, most of all, prayed for me, were now touching me in a most remarkable manner. Later in the evening, I went to my mother’s room, took her hands in mine, kissed them and much to her surprise, told that to me they were the most beautiful hands in world.41.
