Hugging

Hugging is my favorite gesture Not this time.

Excellent advice Len! I haven't hugged all this time, and still wear a mask at times. I am so sorry for you. I think we all need to check for covid before traveling. I still get weary when someone gets too close to me in public. Good entry...GL in the contest!

Hmmm, you are still not hugging? I nursed my husband through two weeks of Covid. He lived and is 67 and asthmatic. I never caught it from him and I don't know anybody personally that died from it. maybe you had a tragedy in your family? If not, I think you should just eat right, stay healthy and hug your loved ones.

There are way more damaging ills Around than a concocted virus I'd advocate more interaction and stronger immunity' having as we all have lived through it and can gauge the reality now Against the hype '

My last hug was Aug 12, 2022 when our friend arrived from her country. My friend and I met her and we hugged a lot. We had lunch date. We hugged till we depart. After 3 days, my friend and I got covid. So far with God's mercy, my family back home was fine. I did not see them for 4 years because of pandemic. if I will go home soon, still planning not to hug them for few days, then when I know that I'm safe, then I will hug them. Thanks for dropping by my dear friend. I'll take your advice.God bless.

Good advice, although I'm saddened by the lack of human touch these days. Linda

Yes, hugging is now scary a bit my dear friend. I got covid last Aug 12, 2022. My co-teacher who lives with me in the same building went to meet a friend we haven't seen for years. When we went home, we got sick.Thank you so much for your kind words. God bless you always. Hugs
