Study proves Beatles right: All you need is love

A rigorous study done over the course of 70 years found that men who ended up the happiest, healthiest, and felt the most successful, were not the ones who made a lot of money, but the ones who had love in their lives.

I can't say I find this very surprising, but it is nice to see a study to back up what I've always believed!
 
When I took an infant massage class, the instructor told us a story that touched me. Whether it was true or not, I loved the underlying meaning. She said that there was some orphanage in some country where the children didn't have much to eat, but were massaged on a daily basis, and the children thrived. She was talking about the importance of touching/showing physical affection for your child as a way to make them feel loved.

My parents have been married for almost 50 years, and they still hold hands and hug and kiss throughout the day.
