A Healing Hug

It was one of those healing hugs. The ones, if you believe in a bit of spirituality, where you can feel energy is being transferred from one person who cares to one person who is in need. You can let go during these hugs, in the sense that you don’t have to care about how you are composed. It’s not a half hearted one-arm hug, it’s far from a socially awkward but expected hug or a quick I-gotta-run hug. These hugs take time. They can make you smile like a fool or make you cry. You let tension go because the other person can carry whatever you need to be unburdened of. You don’t have to say anything or say much at all. They are also rare and few people will accept such hugs and few people in your life can give them. They are magic and they can heal.
