7/6 International Kissing Day on July 6 is the perfect time of year to celebrate this simple but powerful gesture. From French kissing and a formal kiss on the cheek, to a kiss hello and a kiss goodbye — kissing is an age-old practice with significance that extends far beyond just romance. If we go back in time, we can thank the Romans for the widespread practice of kissing in Europe. They described kissing in three forms: the osculum (a friendly peck on the cheek), the basium (a loving kiss on the lips), and the savium (the most passionate of kisses on the mouth). In Roman society, when, where, and how you kissed someone was an important indicator of social status.
Hana grew up with cultures of kissing right and then left cheek as a greeting. Hana was an affectionate person and often hugged and kissed her friends and family. You could tell how much she loved you as she hugged and kissed her family and friends. As always she made people know they were loved. I love you Hana. I miss you and how you showed how much you loved me. I wish you were still here with me.
