Dearest Jane, indeed, hugs are all important my friend, and my son would cry and cry as I left him in his first days of nursery infant school aged 4. I was comforted greatly by one teacher who would settle him with calm words and kind hugs as he sobbed his heart out.
Thank goodness there are those whose hearts open to give those hugs when we need them.
Jane, I am just catching up here with your posts... Its been a while since I wanted to engage both here and within my own blog space. Sometimes we just have to follow our hearts, and hug ourselves a little.
Sending you much love my lovely friend. I do hope also that your dental work has now healed and all is well in your world...
Dearest Sue, you are so lovely. Thank you for your kind words and empathy. Your son's teacher sounds special, and yes, hugs help. I am heartened that you have taken the time to hug yourself. My mouth has healed, thank you, and all is well with us. I appreciate your love and support. Xxxxx ❤️😘❤️
You are so kind, John. It went well, and all is resolved. I am quietly healing. Our love and healing prayers for your Twiggy, and you all. Much love from us both. Xxx ❤️
Wonderful piece Jane. I have been recently blessed with a new woman in my life and human touch is so important. We only hope our society will evolve into a more compassionate one.
You hit home on so many levels with this post, Jane. I'm a hugger. It comes naturally to me, much in the same way it did for my nurturing mom. My dad came from a strict German upbringing, and showing affection was much more difficult for him. Over the years, I broke down some of those barriers with him. When I'd come over to visit as an adult, I'd always hug him and tell him I loved him, both things that were hard for him until his later years. Debbie and I raised our son to be affectionate, and I love that he is the same way with his child. I hug many of my close friends, male and female, when I see them. A hug says, "I value you; you're important to me."
I hugged students quite often when that is what they needed, realizing I was putting myself at some degree of risk if someone misinterpreted the gesture. If a child came into class in tears because their dog died or something of that nature, I also broke protocol because it was the human thing to do.
I knew you would be a hugger, Pete. You are so very lovely, and your family, alongside your Mum, were a loving gift for your Dad, as I know you were for your students. Much love to you, Debbie, and all your family. We wish you a lovely weekend, from us both. Xx 🩷
