An Explaination of Why Hugs are Important


I was talking to a friend the other day, about what you could not live without in life. We thought about music, movies, friends, restaurants, money, and presents. One thing I don't think I could live without is hugs. My insightful mother once told me, that a person needs to be touched at least 10 times a day, in order to stay healthy. (This was a long time ago. Maybe she was pulling my leg, but I still believe it today.) She explained that this kind of touch can be accidentally running into someone, a hug, a handshake, a high-five, a fist bump or anything that involves some kind of physical touch. 



Generally, I am not a touchy, feely person, but when I get a hug from anyone, I get all warm and fuzzy inside. A feeling of I am loved. Now, don't think that I hug just anyone! I make sure these individuals are well qualified for a special Lisa hug. So next time you see me, don't be nervous to give me a hug. Now that you know what my favorite thing is, what is yours?
