Affection is a necessary thing for all people at all times and experiences in life. We find that we can measure our level of caring for one another through the amount if time and conscious effort we exhibit in the energy we spend making ourselves physically available to one another. After all, it is truly a natural thing in the makeup of human beings to not only need, but want to be close to those persons we love.

Do you like hugging and being hugged? Do you not find that being hugged seems to breathe a newness of life into your stressed and tired body, making you feel more alert and alive? Simply hugging those we love strengthens and deepens our mutual relationships. This may be a bit new or foreign to your past behavior, but learn to express your feelings by hugging. I would recommend you give at least a few hugs a day to those closest to you. And you know, no one has ever died from having too many hugs in a day!

Now, allow mw to interject a specific definition, here. I’m not talking about a wild beast, bear claw, crushing sumo wrestler hug. I’m referring to the tender, close, heart-stopping embrace motivated by love and caring and sincere affection. The closeness of an embrace that is held long enough to melt, and then just a moment longer.

None of us are perfect. We do not have all the answers or suggestions for all of life’s continual challenges. But we all have that one something to give, give freely, and give often. And that is a hug.

A close concept that boarders on the edge of hugging and further deepens our closest and most important relationships is the concept of “touching”. “Touching” is an example of true affection, and should be a spontaneous physical celebration of that affection and togetherness. We all receive the benefits of the learning process as we come together and express our physical needs, and reciprocate, as well, in a loving, caring, caressing way.

Were you raised on the milk of tactile contact? Regardless of, or in spite of, our relationships we had as we grew and were nurtured into who we are today, we can change. We aren’t perfect, yet. If we have had bad, we can find good. If we have had good, we can make it even better. There is something to be said for being willing to be a bit “touchy-feely” in your relationships. And what protects us is our humanness. Our ability and desire as human beings to love others and accept the love that is so freely offered to us, as well.

It is not our indifference that keeps us warm at night. It is our willing and inspiring tenderness that makes others want to be near us. To want to keep us warm.

The simple hug, touch, and caress are more than an awesome experience. They have the potential to change your whole life.
