Free HUGS!

Since I am trying to reach a number of people out there in 'Blogger' land. And trying to get my numbers of viewers increased. I truly love meeting new people and hearing their stories...because as we all know, everyone has a story. I thought this would be perfect. Who doesn't like a 'HUG'! And one that is free, with no strings tied to it. Just a simple,heart-felt,bear HUG! Here they are...my free hugs to all of my beautiful friends and to all the new friends! To all those who are hurting today and need a place to come and feel renewed. Remember a HUG is a very powerful thing. I for one love giving them and receiving them. I enjoy giving full hugs, none of those tap you on the back type. But a full body hug, one that screams out 'Love ya'! Turn on your speakers and sit back & Enjoy!

With much love,

Well take you left hand and grab your right shoulder. Hold it. Now take your right hand and grab your left shoulder. Now squeeze both shoulders together. There that was a hug back from me to you. Have a wonderful day!

Hi Robyn

I came over via Terri too. I HAD to! I'm a big time hugger fan myself. I actually end all my comments and blog post with "Hugs, Kat". I love, love, love hugs. My friend Jennifer gives the bestest hugs. I actually did a post about hugs with a cute cartoon and a poem and you can find it here.

Hugs to you!

CSI Seattle said...

I just came here for a free hug. And a beer if you have one. I am knee deep in my current project and haven't had much time for visiting or posting. I can see a light at the end of the tunnel but I think it might be a train...

TOPolk said...

I randomly came across your blog. I like the free hugs you're passing out. Here's one back to you. *hug*

- Keep up the good work you've got going here

Dot said...

I will take one of your hugs gladly and give you one right back!

Kookaburra said...

Look out!! Here's a hug ( )

Love to you & your family,

Julie said...

My favorite hug was given to me by my Father. I was sitting up on a kitchen counter and sobbing over a personal issue I was having. He came over to me and just circled me with his arms and told me he loved me...which is really rare for him...and I just melted. Honestly - I have never felt so loved in all of my life!

INNER VOICES said...

dont squeeze too hard, i generaly have a thick blob of grease stuck to my jacket somewhere. so you are likely to get something on you....

Jan said...

I needed that. Thanks. Here's hug back. Sorry it was a little tight huh.

Mary Isabella and Kiley too! said...

Wonderful and I agree with what you said about Hugs...Mary

CSI Seattle said...

My goodness,

40 comments? Hello? How cool is that? You are building a huge network of friends. And it looks like everyone is very fun. You win the blogging award for the day and perhaps the entire month.

Wow...it really shows how much a hug can mean. It's not just a simple action it is in fact a meaningful gesture of love and friendship. Happy Valentine's Day, Robyn!!

Truly awesome post.

Hey Robyn,

Thanks for my hug :-) I am feeling better already! The cough is going, so I'm doing well. It snowed last night, so everything looks great, and the sun is shining! :-)

Take care,

Hope you are having a wonderful Valentine's day.

Mr. Shife said...

Thanks for the hug - right back at you. A friend of mine once asked me if it was easier to give a hug or a kiss, and I instantly said kiss but the more we discussed it we concluded that it is harder to give a hug. Anyway nice post and Happy Valentine's Day.

bindhiya said...

Dear Robyn,
I came again for one more lovely (hug) from you! Thank you and here one back ( ) with delicious award "sweet as sugar"..
Happy Valentine's Day!
love

Hi honey, I made it. Finally. I think I'm dying, so wasn't able to get here sooner, but got here as soon as I could. God, I hope I'm on the right blog. I'm so delirious I'm not sure. It took five minutes to figure out how to spell delirious and then when I read the description I realized it isn't the word I want to use. Aaaaaah, screw it! You know what I mean. Here, this might just do it...I FEEL LIKE CRAP AND DON'T THINK I'M ALIVE! That felt better. Marginally.

I can feel the squeeze of that hug all the way from Elk Grove. If you squeeze a little harder perhaps you can pop whatever evil is in my body right on out. If not, that's okay because your original hug was just the medicine I need (well...I'm still sick, but I'm a happier sick). I love you my dear. Right back at you.

I see most of my friends are here. I owe them all a response to their lovely comments on my blog, but I'm too sick. I tried today, but had to give up after a few. Forgive me.

One observation before I go. Your post has been an absolute success! Not one single comment from you to tip the scales. 47, now 48. How have you held back sweetie!!!??? Dive in honey and enjoy your beautiful fans - - you're a lucky woman!

I love you and thanks for everything,
Suze

Suzanne said...

One more observation. I notice everyone writes a sentence or two. I write a novella. Why? Well, at least I'm not as bad as Peter,I don't repeat myself, but apparently as bad as CSI, I come back more than once. Okay, that's 49.

XO

Suzanne said...

I didn't feel well, so didn't watch the video. I still don't feel well, but just did. I have tears in my eyes. It's amazing. I'm going to watch it again. Thank you. Big hug. Super big.

Suzanne said...

I've watched it again and again and love it.

Shara said...

Suzanne sent me...I'm so glad I did! Hugs...how wonderfully Human!
Thanks,
