Daily Question, March 6

Who are some of the people you are excited to hug when quarantine ends?

  • charli brzozek

    My grandparents, my friends and my s/o. Hugging people you love is one of the nicest feelings and it makes me feel so comfortable and safe. I love hugs and can’t wait to be aloud.

  • Tiffany

    My parents, my in laws, my friends. To not be afraid to hug them, will be wonderful to overcome. I know I need hugs. My brain and heart have ached over this past year and longed for these moments soon to come.

  • Mike

    I’m not much of a hugger. But I’m looking forward to not having to put six feet and a mask between myself and my wife’s sister’s family when we’re in their kitchen, doing dishes after a nicely hosted dinner.

  • Hot Sauce

    I can’t wait to visit and hug my friends from college! I wasn’t able to go to Nebraska last year because of the pandemic, but I really hope I get a chance to do so this year.

  • LeanIn

    My elderly parents and my best friend. It’s been way too long!

  • Judith Inanchy

    my children and grand children

  • Dusty Su

    Every and anyone who would like a hug. It’s a part of my job description, and I have a deficit so big it will take an entire lifetime to catch up. CAN’T WAIT!

  • Kristi

    My students, co-workers and friends!

  • sb

    As a tiny minority, dare I say, I have been happy not hugging! I am quite shy and reserved and find it hard to hug/touch a lot of people (parents and husband excepted!) But I don’t have grandchildren and my answer might have been very different if I did have!

  • Melissa

    My son, his wife, my grandchildren all my bothers and sister-in-laws and my nieces and nephews, the new babies in the family. My dear friends. How my heart aches for them and human touch.

  • Emily

    My Mom, My Dad, My Nephew and Niece. And My Friends.

  • Antoinette

    My mom and dad . I haven’t seen them for over a year because I live in Norway and their in the USA. I miss them and it hurts my heart.

  • Holly in Ohio

    Louise Douglas Nathan John Beth Tony Connie Dave Matt K Shuang Peter Ruby Mark Robert Taylor Nicole James Matt Steve Mary Takeshi Idrysen Christina Sam Rick Candace Linda James H, other James H , Jackie, Barb, Sue, everyone I’m forgetting at the moment and anyone under the age of 7…. oh, let’s just include everyone!!!!

    Family, friends, difficult people in my life (if/when they are ready), and whoever needs a hug (which is probably everyone). What a wonderful way to start a ripple of blessing. True story about hugs starting ripples. My wife was in the hospital one day recovering from massive cancer surgery and just transferred to a chair when her surgeon walked in. She spontaneously stood up and gave him a hug before he told her to sit down due to the pain it caused her. After a brief medical update co...

    True story about hugs starting ripples. My wife was in the hospital one day recovering from massive cancer surgery and just transferred to a chair when her surgeon walked in. She spontaneously stood up and gave him a hug before he told her to sit down due to the pain it caused her. After a brief medical update conversation, he left and after a few minutes the attending nurse walks in the room. She asked if Dr. W was her doctor and she said yes and asked, “why do you ask?” She said that she had worked with Dr. W for 25 years and that was the first time he EVER gave me a hug.

    Ripples my dear friends!!

    My family, my friends, everyone!

  • Kriss

    I will look forwarding to hugging my grandmother, mother and step father as well as my brother. My dad passed away a year ago but I know that through God we will be reunited and I once again will hug him and laugh with him.

  • Christine

    My dear neighbour. I think she is an angel. Since my husband died in 2019, she gives me so much comfort an unconditional friendship. When quarantaine ends I give her a big big hug.

  • Toni
    My family. When I see them which even without the pandemic is very rare. My sister if she or I travel. I don't have any friends left. Due to letting go of people places and things I have had to let people go. I do hope to meet some new friends. Loneliness and isolation and this pandemic has put me in a position of perspective. I do have love in my heart but not for abusers. I have had to let go of people in order to start over. I hope that starting over brings new hope. I will value who...

    My family. When I see them which even without the pandemic is very rare. My sister if she or I travel. I don’t have any friends left. Due to letting go of people places and things I have had to let people go. I do hope to meet some new friends. Loneliness and isolation and this pandemic has put me in a position of perspective. I do have love in my heart but not for abusers. I have had to let go of people in order to start over. I hope that starting over brings new hope. I will value whomever I get to hug, but I will be selective.

    I have to laugh because when I first read the question (maybe not fully awake yet or I need new glasses?), I thought it said “Who are some of the people you are excited to BUG when quarantine ends?” And you know what? Even thinking about getting back together with the people we sometimes BUG and they bug us — even that makes me happy!
