The Huge Hug Club
03rd April 2020
Well, here we all are again – this time for episode two – as a community we are always here for each other – readers, writers and bloggers alike, let’s unite!
My thanks Lisa of Lismore Paper too for creating this new design for The Huge Hug Club.
The – C – Crisis or C19 as l tend to call it – is causing a great deal of anxiety and worry for people – l can understand that – we all can.
I shall be awarding hugs to my readership once/twice a week for as long as they are needed. As l travel around the blogs l follow reading the tales and the stories, the diary entries and so on – you can judge how people are reacting to this by how they write or sadly in some cases …. don’t. l am aware who is alone and feeling isolated, or had a bad week as well as those already missing yesterday.
So my philosophy is simple – everybody needs a hug!
Now if anyone wants a hug just let me know below in the comments section and next time around you will receive said hug.
Everyone loves a hug and everyone deserves a hug.
There is a great deal of beauty to the hug ….
Reduce stress
They can keep your immune system healthy
Boost your heart health
Make you happier
Reduce your anxiety and fears
Can make the monsters go away
Reduce pain
A Form of communication – as in ‘just to say hello’
***
For Laughing To!
Because we all need to laugh!
For Listening To
Because we need to remember to relax
Lyrics included for those to sing along to!
For Philosophy To Read!
Because we need perspective!
“Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.”
“Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.”
“The most important thing is to enjoy your life—to be happy—it’s all that matters.”
Today’s Hugs Go To ….
…………….. if you too would like a hug, let me know below! There’s plenty to go around!

So hopefully folks this’ll make your day a little easier and remind you we will all get through this together and you are never alone!
Here’s wishing you a truly lovely day!

🙂 Rory, in this instance, it is going to be a virtual hug due to the fact that physically hugging someone during these times would potentially spread COVID-19.
I truly hope that you are safe in you part of the world and thank you for spreading positivity via your WordPress blog.
Hey good morning Renard here’s wishing you a lovely day when the Saturday swings in properly for you 🙂
Yes, we are left to virtual hugs but as Socrates once said … “Dude, a virtual hug is way better than a swift kick in the nuts!” I have always remembered that quote from one of my mentors ha ha … keep well my friend 🙂
Cheers mate a big hug is needed in these times. Thanks for the mention.
Hey Stephen, yes totally agree very much so – these are indeed trying times 🙂
