Writing Life

A periodic record of thoughts and life as these happen via the various roles I play: individual, husband, father, grandfather, son, brother (brother-in-law), writer, university professor and others.

Michael, I'm always a little behind on commenting on your blog..lol.but must comment on this one. For some reason, our family never hugged, and I really don't know why, it just wasn't a practice we did.

I have to tell you, it wasn't till my first visit to JC, TN. after the Copes moved there, that I had anyone hug me!!! It felt GREAT!! Touch is such am important feeling, and I don't think we do it enough. Of course there are those out there who do it inappropriately and spoil it for all of use.

Just my thoughts...
