Gawd, I miss (((Hugs)))

Ever have one of those days when you miss something so crucial to your need of being nurtured that you wish there was a way to find it? I'm having one of those days. Every now and again, it hits me. Hard. Today, all I would absolutely love is to be able to curl up, very tight, next to someone and be engulfed in a body hug. You know the kind I mean. The "in snuggle comfy clothes, all tucked into the fold of someone's warm body, with their arm across your shoulder holding you close" kinda hug.

I miss that more than I can describe. It's not just be on the receiving end, but also being the one to provide that. I miss it so much. How do some people exist without that precious human touch in their lives? It's been such a long year here for me without that and I cannot possibly imagine living the rest of my life without such ~touch~. It's not about sex or anything remotely close to that. It's truly about human closeness. I know we all must eat for our bodies to survive, but what about the emotional comfort? Does that not help us be as healthy within our own soul, our heart and mind, feel whole as a person? I truly think it does.

I feel as if I'm some wilting plant. The lack of water. Lack of much needed nutrients for survival. To have someone who could foster this soul with such caring, I know I could find my blooms. I could show my colors. So bright, so fresh, and so lasting.
