I was unfortunate enough to see a relative die on the 15th of October and other events up until and since then had damaged what little faith I have in human nature (definately a year to forget![long story])………….until now!
When asked by someone the other day if there was anything I needed, I said “a hug,” and being the cheeky sod I am, I added, “and some flowers and choccies would be nice too!”
Low behold, today I recieved a bunch of flowers, some chocolates and this which is so sweet I thought I would share it!There’s something in a simple hug
That always warms the heart
It welcomes us back home
And makes it easier to part.
A hugs a way to share the joy
And sad times we go through
Or just a way for friends to say
They like you ’cause you’re you.Hugs are meant for anyone
For whom we really care,
From grandma to your neighbour,
Or a cuddly teddy bear.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.It’s funny how a little hug
Makes everyone feel good,
In every place and language,
It’s always understood.And hugs don’t need new equipment,
Special batteries or parts –
Just open up your arms
And open up your hearts.The poet is Jill Wolf apparently and I am not really into poetry, but thought it was a nice piece. So go on………go hug someone![][]
And no, just cos I shared the poem don’t mean I’m gonna share me choccies![:p]Rebel with a cause!
The roads are my race track!!
LOVE IS GIVING SOMEONE THE POWER TO DESTROY YOU, BUT TRUSTING THEM NOT TO DO IT.
