As many people had already seen it, I'm glad it was your first time because it is a treat to watch. Also, thank you for your nice comment about the time off and for the hugs. I'm back and it was well worth it:~) @ Barbara — Isn’t a wonderful video. As many people had already seen it, I’m glad it was your first time because it is a treat to watch.

I do feel more refreshed and, like you, the beach always has a healing affect on me. Thanks for the hug:~) p.s. I'm pleased you liked the video. Other people said they also seen it, but it was worth seeing again. I still watch it...it just makes me smile:~) @ Serena — The re-entry is always a bit difficult, but I am so glad I took the time off.

It rained, but only at night. We had a great time...the only problem was having to leave! Thanks for the hugs:~) @ Davina — The beach was perfect. It rained, but only at night.

I can't tell you how many times I've read someone post and it's either been exactly something I needed or it picked up a thread of something I was writing about. I think that's called synchronicity:~) @ Tony — That’s the cool thing about blogging…there’s a connection that we develop amongst the bloggers in our community.

It's amazing to me how just a smile will turn someone's day around. I know that this video and the comments I have done that for me:~) @ Carla — I used to be kind of shy about hugs, but I’ve learned that hugs, smiles and laughter are so good for you physically that I now try to pass them on to others whenever I can.

I agree about the hugs and it's nice to know that just watching a video can make you feel like you got a hug. You are so right about being more gentle and caring towards others and I add...towards ourselves, as well. JC and I did have a great break at the beach. It was just what I needed:~) @ Naomi — I’m glad the video made you smile! I agree about the hugs and it’s nice to know that just watching a video can make you feel like you got a hug.

I read some of your book while I was at the beach. It's really good, Chris:~) @ Chris — I keep my cat and dog on as co-workers even though they really don’t do a lot of “work,” but sometimes just looking at them so comfy makes me take a deep breath and relax.

I didn't see the video of the guy hi-fiving people...that must have been a shock for some of the people hailing a cab. I think the nice thing about these types of videos is that they do reach out and touch us...sometimes at a point when we really need it. Also, if something makes you laugh or smile, then you've done something healthy for yourself:~) @ Caity — Well, things are better now and thank your thoughts.
