This week (May 6-12) celebrate National Hug Week!
A hug is a sign of friendship, of sympathy, of encouragement, and of intimacy. Start each day off right this week with a warm embrace, a tight bear hug, or a romantic snuggle. Just get close and get your arms around one another.
A hug is an amazing thing -
It’s just the perfect way
To show the love we’re feeling
But can’t find the words to say.
- From Simple Hugs
There are also many different types of hugs:
Hugs of sadness and hugs of joy
Loose hugs with a kiss on the check
Big Bear hugs, a pat on the back
You can hug hello and you can hug goodbye,
You can hug 1-on-1 or a giant group hug,
You can hug a human, you can hug a pet,
You can hug a stuffed toy, you can hug a tree,
You can even hug yourself.
- From What’s So Great About Hugs
So celebrate each day this week with a hug!
