They were tearing up. Everybody gave hugs. It was a feeling we all missed. It was a sign of hope.

I think the guy does a good job. I hope it works out and he can be here a long time.

The way I swam today, I'm ready to do a good job next week. I hope it works out, and I feel like it can.

I doubt that there is a perfect system. But we hope it's getting better.

Hugs are part of everybody life for me. I’ll hug all sorts of people- I don’t worry about it looking unmanly or whatever. I think physical human contact is one of the things that makes living worthwhile.

This is not a letter but my arms around you for a brief moment
