The Power of a HUG.

I watched a show on TV today, and I noticed that there was a lot of hugging in it. Every time someone hugged, I realized how important hugs can be. I love getting hugs. Even more, I love giving hugs. When I was in high school, I had a friend tell me that I gave great hugs. That's because I am serious about them. I get really annoyed when someone gives a half ass hug. Hugs are supposed to mean something. A hug is the closest you can physically be to someone else. I like hugs because they make me feel safe and loved. The right hug can take all the worries away, at least for a second. A good hug, lets you know that someone cares about you.

I will not play Tug O' War,

I'd rather play Hug O' War;

Where everyone hugs, instead of tugs,

Where everyone giggles and rolls on the rug.

Where everyone kisses,

And everyone grins,
Everyone cuddles,

And everyone wins.

--Shel Silverstein

Hugs are important!
