Howdy Doody Folks!!
Once a month – the Huge Hug Club is active! Today is that day! You know, we may all be on different continents, different countries, different customs and cultures, but whilst we are here – we are the same. I may not be able to get y’all each and every day – fact! I may not talk to y’ll each and every day Fact! But it doesn’t mean that l am not thinking about y’all! That’s a fact! But everyone needs a hug at least once a damn day!
“A hug is a form of endearment, universal in human communities, in which two or more people put their arms around the neck, back, or waist of one another and hold each other closely. If more than two people are involved, it is referred to as a group hug”
“Hugs should be available at the medical stores 24/7. Sometimes, they are the best healers for almost everything.”
