Hugging Is New Handshake

I have mentioned publicly before my aversion to hugging.  It is really more that I am accustomed to a handshake and never comfortable about the rules of hugging.  A handshake was always the way of greeting in my family, with roots in West Texas/Panhandle firm handshakes.  My dad has one of the best handshakes in the world. 

The NY Times article below describes the new sociological phenom how hugs are replacing the handshake for teenagers. 


Parents, who grew up in a generation more likely to use the handshake, the low-five or the high-five, are often baffled by the close physical contact. “It’s a wordless custom, from what I’ve observed,” wrote Beth J. Harpaz, the mother of two boys, 11 and 16, and a parenting columnist for The Associated Press, in a new book, “13 Is the New 18.”

I've been wondering about this


blog: Is Kindle Hurting Barnes & Noble’s Web Sales? http://tinyurl.com/ot6l8c #kindle

My kindle is keeping me out of the store some, but I still like to stroll through and see what looks good. I can then push a button to download the book for less than $10.

Tutu Haiku

Words aren't shaping easily

Telling of man put by God

Freeing non-violently

Picture not mine, but found here.


It was incredible being in same room with such a historic figure for equality, justice; a true Nobel Peace laureate. The most moving moment is when he led all 1600 of us preachers in an acapella Amen chorus to finish the night. Great night at Festival of Homiletics.
