Celebrating World Hug Day
Although not officially a national holiday, January 21st was held as the World Hug Day in different countries such as United States of America, Russia, Germany, Canada, England and Australia. This is so because hugging is a form of touch therapy that is regarded to be a cure for minor stress and loneliness. Nearly anyone can tell you that a hug can do wonders for an empty and lonely heart.
