They say “the devil’s in the details,” and sometimes it takes a fresh perspective to recognize the beauty we often miss in ourselves. Nurse Brandalyn Mae Porter experienced this firsthand during a touching moment with an elderly resident.
While giving the woman a manicure, Brandalyn suggested a playful nail color, but the resident opted for clear polish, calling her hands “ugly.” With kindness, Brandalyn replied, “Your hands tell a story of love, care, and adventure. They’ve touched and held more than most people could ever imagine.” Moved by this, the woman decided on a pink polish instead.
This simple, heartwarming gesture, shared widely on the internet, encourages us to embrace our flaws and find beauty in every detail.
