Many of you may not have been aware that today, January 21st, is National Hug Day, but I am here to relay this message to you that today should be one of everyone's favorite days of the year. An everyday occurrence such as a smile, a simple acknowledgement from a passerby, a compliment, or a hug can go a long way in making somebody's day. There are many hugs that range from but are not limited to the 'I Love You Hug,' the 'I Want You Now Hug,' my personal favorite the 'Butt Squeeze Hug,' the ever so thrilling 'Ecstatic Jump in Arms Hug,' then the more traditional Friendly, Encouraging, Group or Half hugs, and not to mention the ever so popular Tree Hug!
A hug is not just confined and limited to two people wrapping their arms around each other but more like a handshake from the heart. It is a symbol of a universal language of love, comfort, and friendship not just for fathers and mothers, but also to be shared among sisters and brothers. A hug is a compassionate connection that people share, which finds a way to show the love that we are feeling when we just can not find the words to say. A hug from a friend can catch your tears and relieve the lingering pain, and bring a bright horizon after the storm with a beautiful rainbow after the rain. So I ask all of you to embrace and celebrate this great holiday by just opening up your arms along with your hearts without any delay, by just giving a friendly inviting smile and give someone a hug today!
