Hugs

My nieces, Lynn's daughters. I miss them so much.
Hugs can do great amounts of good - especially for children.

I agree with Princess Diana, hugs can be  powerful and comforting.  You can feel the love even without hearing the words.  According to Virginia Satir:
We need 4 hugs a day for survival. 
We need 8 hugs a day for maintenance. 
We need 12 hugs a day for growth.

  1. You can feel the hugs, close to your heart when you love them. A void feeling when you hug someone out of nothing. Hugs welds emotions to the fullest.

  2. Hugs cure sadness, depression, loneliness. Everytime I come home from work, my kids' hugs energizes me!

  12. I feel so poor that I am not a hugger. I don't know why, it's probably I look awkward doing hugs. :(

    They are so cute and sweet.

Rebuilding a House that was Burned by the Fire

I think the worse natural disaster is fire.  With typhoon, your house may get torn into pieces but at least you can still salvage some of it...
