All You Need is a Hug

It is primitive
without it you die...

Human touch, so basic, so primitive... without it you die. I recently heard of a story that a baby who hasn't been held with a human died in three months. So in conclusion, we all need a touch, a hug, a pat, a kiss.

Yesterday, I was feeling down... I don't know, so much has happened to me. I've been in a lot of exams and interviews but still haven't got a job. I have challenged myself in any physical activity and felt good about myself doing it but... I knew something was missing, I felt down and lonely and wished someone would take care of me. My brother came into my room and suddenly I just called him to hug him and I felt all right... wow, there must be something magical about a touch... and there is something destructive about the touch when used abusively - physically, sexually, etc.

Children nowadays are devoid of touch. Parents are so far away either physically or emotionally. Today's pace of life leaves the family, so broken and children are longing and longing for their parent's touch. I believe that the increasing number of homosexually struggling men are guys as boys devoid of their father's touch and also women who jumps from one guy to another are also devoid from their father's touch or lesbianism struggling women from a mother's touch... You can often hear them say, "It's not sex that I really want, just another person's warmth through touch."...

Me and my uncanny thoughtsm but think about it... It makes sense. We all need touch.
