I have loved bears all my life, as far back as I can remember.

 

They are so charming, comforting, loving, warm and soft to cuddle.

 

Bears can keep secrets even better than a best friend.

 

They can repel the evil characters from bad dreams and comfort a broken heart.

 

Bears can make you brave when you feel rather timid and small.

 

They teach you, like no other, to nurture.

Bears teach you to be responsible, reliable and to concern yourself with another being rather than yourself.

 

What other toy, other than the teddy bear, can become a part of your family and be a treasured member that carries with it, memories of those we love and a carrier of our triumphs, failures and keeper of dreams for our tomorrows?

Bears make me smile.

 

They make me feel at home.

 

I've traveled the world and almost always had a bear with me.

 

While at a hotel, guest room or new home, I can feel at ease with my bear beside me.

A Bear means I'm never alone . . . even when I am the only one
in the room.

 

 

Collecting for me came as natural as breathing. They call to me.

Once a bear has touched my heart, I can not leave without him.

 

 

I have over 900 bears of all sizes, ages and pedigrees in my bear hug.

 

I've met many wonderful artist, been to fun places and interesting shops to find my bears. Entertainment worth millions!

 

 

While some adults may think this a childish hobby, I find that they often end up touching the bears and reliving memories of their childhood and their own teddy or toy that brought them much joy.

 

Bears touch the heart.

 

I collect many other items just because, but bears are special. There is not another toy like them that doesn't care if you are female or male, young or old, popular or alone; they will be there for you from cradle to grave. 

 

Bear Hugs.
