The Importance of Touch

Here is a thought: How often do you touch others?

And, how important is that connection?  

Too often, I think, we take for granted the importance in the simplest of actions.  A handshake, a hug.  A pat on the shoulder.  A kiss on the cheek.  Touch.

A certain centering of self seems to take place.  I myself had forgotten how to feel.  How to enjoy those simplest of human needs.  It's good for the soul.

Here's your daily reminder to hug someone special to you.  Just take it all in.
