Have you ever had to look in a bag while you were busy doing something else? You can’t see, so you put your hand in and feel around for the object you need. In essense you are “seeing with your hands”.

I think we need to do more “seeing” with our hands. We spend so much time merely viewing the world with our eyes - looking hurriedly at things from the vicarious distance. But when we take the time to feel texture with our hands… to explore and even create with our sense of touch - we begin to “see” in a new way.
