I just came across this thread again...it's been a while. But hugs are always good to talk about. So I'm bumping it!

What do hugs mean to you? To me, hugs establish a closeness that is not only physical but also emotional. I only hug people I truly like, so to me it's a show of affection and consideration, not just something I hand out randomly.

My position on hugs has not changed. If I had to go without hugs for a very long time, I'd feel sad. It's not a necessity...but it can make a big difference in your life. Right now, I'd like to have at least one meaningful hug per day, thank you

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.

Fernando Pessoa, 1918
