Okay, so this is a forum for people who would like hugs? Hugs, I've got plenty of them to give but I think they should be individualised.  

As you see, there are no arms to reach out to you, only a screen with a bright white light around it.

In my mind, I can think of all kinds of hugs:

there are elder hugs e.g grandma/poppa/mother/father hugs (the hugs you get when your elder takes his/her arms around you and squishes your head to one side so you can't see behind them (taking the bad picture away from your mind)).

there are boyfriend hugs (where your boyfriend squeezes you around your waist and your chest meets heart to heart, so you can also get a kiss, yeah: a bonus kiss, hmm hmm!)

there are girlfriend hugs (okay, I don't want these but I'll give them to the cute guys.  These hugs are when you also meet the chest heart to heart, but you can be sure to make his shoulders feel covered to take the weight of the world away.  Yeah, he really needs less pressure right now.  Damn, some guys put themselves under too much pressure.)

there are children hugs (when you pick up your baby and squeeze him/her so gently and smother them with a love only a parent can give).

there are friend hugs (which are either kind of quick (a sign of reassurance) or a kind or hug which sways you side to side - so you can see that life does move or flow and you won't be stuck in that rut for too long!)

But in my imagination, hugs could also be a flavour. e.g. chocolate coated hugs with hundreds and thousands, or vanilla icecream hugs with caramel topping.

How about sweet scented hugs? Perfumed incense hugs, after bubble bath lavender hugs, sandalwood and ylang ylang hugs, aftershave aroma packed hugs, you name it - you can get it!

Coloured hugs: yellow and orange spiral hugs, pink kaleidoscope hugs with all shades of squiggly purple and green, mind blowing fluoro blue light hugs, a whole picture of hugs from your crazy mind to another.

Okay, I want to add that I am totally sober, I have not indulged in any drug, my overactive imagination feels like venting itself, so here is the crazy result. Hugs created for your individual attention!

What kind of hugs would you like?  

You forgot about the Mafia hug, the one which comes with the present of new shoes....concrete shoes......LOL  (just kidding)

(Shoo's the imp off her computer monitor and shakes a finger at him promising him some nice shoes if she gets a hold of him....)

You are so right.....but I think you have missed an important thought.

A hug given here on this forum is a "warm though" from a person who you never might see or meet at all.
Most hug here comes from the heart, and is given to or wished from people who are struggling with some problems in their life.
It's much more important that they receive their hug, then two lovers give each other a hug...or a grandpa gives his grand child a hug. Don't take me wrong...all hug is like you said important....but the one your receive when you are down count highest by me, when you are in love or in secure state it's just a confirmation of the situation

I for one....feel the warmth...when someone gives me a "rose" or "hug" true the screen...but as said...it's all stand in the mind

And now...A Big Bear Hug to you as thx for allowing me to think true this subject

Hmm, yeah okay Rhutobello, this post is very tongue in cheek.  Not to be taken too seriously, but nice to know you care so much about the people in the community.  I'm not often far too serious, that's how I'm enjoying my life this way.  Namaste, Beaujolais
