STORY: There sits the anchor.

With a child bound to her back, two hearts beating against a single spine, she stirs the pot. To a passing stranger, she is merely preparing a meal.

Her strength isn’t found in a loud voice or a tall shadow, but in the steady, rhythmic circle of her arm. She is the gravity that keeps the community alive; the sun and trees watch. 

Though she is one soul, her hands dictate the tempo of every heartbeat around her. She holds the weight of the world so effortlessly that the rest of us forget it was ever heavy at all.
