The Power Of A Hug...by Jim Terry

During this time of quarantine, soft openings, stage 1, stage 2, stage 3, and shelter-in-place times created by COVID-19, I saw something that I wanted to share. 

I personally really miss the social interaction of what a simple smile from others can do for you or your day, which can no longer be seen because of having to wear a mask while in public spaces. I also miss a simple handshake while I meet or greet a friend or a patient in the dental office. However, the biggest thing I miss is just giving someone you care about, or love, a HUG. I will direct you to the linked video and just say, "The power of a hug" is underrated.

So make sure to hug those people you can hug that you have been sheltering with. It may just make your day and theirs.  Be safe, be happy and HAPPY 4th of July!
