Touched

Well, I was touched this evening for what I can remember the first time in my life (other than my child and grand children) and it felt good. Another human being actually placed his hands on my skin and touched me. Touched me! It was so unreal to me. I enjoyed it. I didn't run scared....I didn't cringe and my skin didn't crawl. The touching monster didn't come and eat me all up. It was a comforting touch...so soft and gentle...just like I had imagined it would be if it ever happened someday. I didn't have to ask to be touched....it just was. I hope I can have touching in my life from my friends in the future. If not, I do have this memory finally! Maybe someday I can hope to be held. Thank you AB for this wonderful experience to my life...
