Sometimes I just need a hug. Those are the times when no words can be immediately found to express a thought or emotion, or smoothe that slight pit in my being. The words will come (they eventually do) but sometimes I just need a hug.

There’s something about that whole “cocoon” thingy. Primally soothing and in its warmth and closeness, there’s something about offering youself arms outstretched and to be mutually and willingly embraced. Call it a momentary pause of acceptance or assurance. Action speaks louder than words. Words are not always necessary. A sense of compassion and a show of heart is always welcomed. A good hug can work wonders and sometimes I just need a hug.
