Okay, this is a "for fun" blog post to my Active Rain friends - starting us out for 2009 ...my writing juices are running, and I'm feeling like sharing the LOVE - cool stuff I've learned.

Did you know?

January 21 - is National Hugging Day! A great excuse (if you need one) to give someone a hug. Everyone Bear Hugneeds a hug, and you can send me one. Check out the site and give your special friend or somebody a great big hug! Can you imagine what a better world we would live in if we all gave each other a hug? One of the things that attracted me to my husband - just one - is that he was a great hugger. Doncha just LOVE a nice bear hug? Not a pat on the back hug, but a full on hug?

January 24 - is Compliment Day! Don't we all agree - that everyday is a good day for a compliment? But, if you can only do it one day, be sure to remember January 24. This website offers lots of good ways to Complimenting with lovecompliment and explains how to accept a compliment.  Set yourself a goal to compliment 5-10-15 people. See how many you can compliment - AND - notice what it does for THEM and for YOU!!!

Okay, that's all...for now, for today, perhaps, but I thought these websites were very cool. Giving hugs and compliments the same month. ;-) How cool is that?

I, for one, am sending each of you a compliment and a hug!

Now, don't you feel better? ;-)

Hello Teri,
There are two days I can get into and what a difference we can make in someone's day by doing just those two things.

Happy 2009 filled with blessings.

Hi Terri - I wasn't aware of either of these days but will mark them down in my calendar.  I must admit I'm not good at remembering special days and usually have to do a lot of "back peddling" when I'm reminded.  lol.  Thanks for the advance notice!

wow never knew of these days before Teri, thanks for the heads up :)  Before i forget heres a pre-hug for you (((((((((((((((Hug)))))))))))))))

Thank you Teri!  Awesome holidays to share!!  I will certainly be happy to pass these on.  Perhaps we could add a few more...  "National Laughter" Day?  Or maybe "Make & Invite a New Friend Out" Day?  Just a thought.  Maybe we could all share possibilities - make some up and celebrate them for ourselves and our friends, families, & co-workers.  I know that I, for one, can always use uplifting and positive reasons to look forward to each day!
