Yes! I think maybe some of the inspiration came from reading Macbeth just after Christmas. Thanks for reading, Bri.
p.s. why do some other commenters think of 'germs/virus'? ok, so a VIRUS is in the news recently. But you COULD be using washing hands as in: " wash (one's) hands of (someone or something) 1. To absolve oneself of or distance oneself from responsibility for something. 2. To renounce, abandon, or distance oneself from someone or something. bri :)

Susan, so great to hear from you! Yes, you read my mind about certain rituals. Thank you so much for reading.
Some of us don't even spend that much time in hand washing! I hope to interact with others in a way that makes a positive difference!
