Hey all,
I have this friend,
amenquohi (Hi,
amenquohi!).
A couple of years ago, when she started college, her mother gave her a hug to take to school with her. It was a large pillow, shaped like arms and hands, that she could wrap around herself whenever she needed a hug.
Great idea, isn't it? Think about it: everyone of us has needed a hug at some point in time. It's human nature, and sending someone you love a portable hug is one of those silly-sweet things that will always bring you fondly to mind.
Now
amenquohi has a business that sells these hugs. It's called Hugs Direct. She's still getting it off the ground. I've got one, and it's great. I use it as a neck pillow when I'm reading, I sleep with it as a bolster, and when I'm feeling really down I wrap it around my shoulders and give myself a great big hug.
So, if you've got someone you need to get a gift for, a hug is a good alternative. It's cheap enough to be a Secret Santa gift, it's goofy enough for siblings, and it's got enough of an awwwww-factor for parents and SOs.
Help
amenquohi out. Give somebody a hug.
