To relieve just a moment of this ungodly heat, I travel
with a spray bottle filled with water. I like to squirt my neck, front and back. It’s caught the attention of the women in our Empowerment Group. So around 11, each morning, I roam the room and offer a quick spray. No words are spoke as we have a language barrier. But my intent is greatly understood. Some of the women want me to spray them on the back of their necks. Some want it on the crown of their head. Others tighten their eyes and take is square in the face. Though it is only a moment of relief, it feels great as we share this universal need to be comforted.
