Hug Your Sweetheart Day – day to hug the one you love. Wait! Shouldn’t we hug the one we love every day? #HugYourSweetHeartDay
This day is held annually on August 23. I cannot find out who started this day or when it was started. But like I mentioned, we don’t need one day of the year to hug our sweetheart. We should be hugging our sweetheart each and every day!
