National Hand Holding Day 2022
 |
My days of 'courting and sparking' have long gone and I find myself content to caress the keyboard instead. I find the steady clack soothing in my old age.
Back in the day I was never a 'Don Juan' so to speak — far from it. That distance I have continually placed between myself and others finally caught up with me so now I'm pretty much an island with the exception of very few.

The day was created as a vehicle providing impetus for people to hold hands with the emphasis of that importance which is touch and also to encourage affection towards those special to our lives.
It is a sad coincidence that the day falls on the birthday of my late Auntie Laura, who passed away early this year.
Happy National Hand Holding Day.
Happy birthday in Heaven Auntie Laura.
