”How do baby chickens dance?”
“Chick to Chick, naturally.”
Ok, it’s not very funny, but I found it in my English students’ textbook. And it is sweet, though.
Today I include a picture of me getting a hug from a little girl in Lima, Peru. Her mother is a prostitute, and left her with a poor woman when she was just a baby. It was amazing to see how her foster-mother cares for her. Being poor and with a husband that has abandoned her and her own kids, she still take very good care of that little girl.
The thing is, I can still feel the hug; Her tiny arms around my neck. Her eyes filled with skepticism and trust at the same time.
There are also other hugs I can still feel; some from family and some from friends. Some from almost strangers. For some reasons there are some hugs that will follow me forever. It’s like it was yesterday.
I guess my chubby cheeks are made for hugging.
