Happiness isn’t about having more, doing more or being more. It is about how we view what is already ours. When you begin to see and appreciate the richness around your, you will almost certainly find that you have a great deal more to be happy than you once imagined.
“Everybody today seems to be in such a terrible rush, anxious for greater developments and greater riches and so on, so that children have very little time for their parents. Parents have very little time for each other, and in the home begins the disruption of peace of the world.” – Mother Teresa
“If we are to teach real peace in this world, and if we are to carry on a real war against war, we shall have to begin with the children.”
– Mahatma Gandhi

Hugs are an expression of love without words – they can take the hurt out of a child’s scraped knee, soothe a troubled soul, comfort the grieving heart and put a smile on the face of almost any person who gives and receives one.
Hugs speaks for themselves, saying “I care, I accept you, I’m here for you, I’ve missed you, I like to be with you. Some researchers have concluded that children need as many hugs a day as they need glasses of milk. So, give and receive more hugs today.
