Hugging (thank you, Boney M!)

This month’s hug song incorporates a great compilation video called “In praise of hugs,” a beautiful showcase of all kinds of hugs (including Botticelli’s paintings of some Jesus & Mary hugs, very apropos for this time of year). Thank you, Boney M, for your great music! May God bless you, protect you, and give you peace!

Music: “Sunny” (Boney M)

“In Praise of Hugs” (The School of Life)

Words by me: Hugging. Yesterday our lives were filled with rain. Hugging seems to really help to ease the pain. The dark days are gone, and the bright days are here ’cause hugs generate a renewed atmosphere. Hugs make us feel good, understood. Hugging, thank you for the sunshine bouquet. Hugging, thank you for the love you brought our way. When there’s a healthy hug protocol, we might even feel ten feet tall. Hugs can be so dear, when sincere. Hugging, thank you for the truth you let us see. Hugging, thank you for your real propensity to make our lives better, to feel less alone, to even release some bonding hormones. Hugs help us unite. Outta sight! Hugging, thank you for the smile upon your face. Hugging, thank you for the gleam that shows its grace. You help us to know that we’re loved so much. We all need affection, some human touch. Hugs can help us smile, reconcile. Hugging, yesterday our lives were filled with rain. Hugging seems to really help to ease the pain. The dark days are gone, and the bright days are here ’cause hugs generate a renewed atmosphere. Hugs make us feel good, understood. Hugs are cool! Hugs are cool!
