So hug someone close to you today just because.

Hug your sweetheart. Hug a neighbor. Hug your child.

Hug a bear. Hug your BFF. Hug a tree!

Hug yourself!

Group hug!

Celebrate hugs ! ❤️

Kevin Zaborney, founder of National Hugging Day, says hugging has many benefits, which include alleviating stress and healing sicknesses.

I don't know how to do the heart thing Amyjo, but you certainly deserve some hugs - as do all other posters here. Can't have too many hugs.

Of course, mine are French hugs but, rest assured, no tongues are involved ;-)

((((Hugs))))

If you are male don't try to hug any female employees at work.

Not everybody remembers
Not everybody cares

I want to hug Bednar. He needs one from an ExMo today! Just look at his reaction to an almost side hug!

Okay, who paid for their scenic vacation to Italy in the dead of winter?

Uh huh, it was tithe payers. Another perk of their job "duties."

Amy, speaking of vacations and ,the day today( Tu B’Shvat), have you been to Israel, to plant a tree?
It sounds interesting. I give to the National Jewish Fund, towards planting trees. I was thinking of it when you mentioned hugging trees today.
I wonder if they timed it so it’d be close to Tu B’Shvat.

No, thanks for reminding me.

I have yet to visit Israel. One of my children, my prodigal child, lives there.

When a young male or female in our synagogue becomes bar/t mitzvahed, the synagogue plants a tree for them in their honor in Israel.

The timing is certainly close enough to wonder if it's more than coincidence.

Tree hugger here.

Hug a Jeffrey Pine here in the CA lower Cascade Range or Sierra Nevadas. They smell like butterscotch. Yummy!

I had a Hershey's Kiss.

I did get and give some virtual hugs.

It would be weird to walk up to my neighbor and hug them.

Instead we shovel each others sidewalks.
