The Hug of Power

“I’m going to jump out of the car and then run ahead, but I’ll slow down and turn around. Then you catch up and we do the hug.” Says Gleek as we pull up to the school.

“Okay.” Answers Patch.

“The Hug of Power really helps me through the day. How about you?” Gleek asks.

“Yeah. I feel better and smarter all day.” Says Patch with a smile.

We pull up to the school and I watch as Gleek dashes toward the door, then turns to wait for Patch. He runs up, arms wide. They hug tight, then walk into the school together.

May the world have more Hugs of Power in it.
