Kisses from mouth to cheek speak wonders to the deaf
Smiles from me to you are judgment to the blind
Sweets are the nurturing to the tasteless
A walk is the impetus to the impaired
Knowledge is the serenity to the brain dead
Dancing is the inspiration to the bone weary
Hugs are the bliss to the discontented
A song is the fortitude of the mute.

I have a cousin who is deaf and mute. I do not know what it feels like not to be heard, nor to hear but i know that a hug now and then won't hurt.
