Hugs


When was the last time you were hugged?

I've always felt better when hugged tightly. Hugs do have the power to erase the bad vibes. So it is no wonder that some people from the US and I think recently from Korea or Japan began lining up crowded streets.

With placards strung or signs hanging across their bodies saying that they are giving free hugs, they wasted no time approaching pedestrians, commuters, practically anybody who they deemed needed a hug. Miraculously, frowns and lines disappeared instantaneously. Of course, there were others who were just fine receiving a random hug from a stranger.

I can't recall if anybody turned them down. Well too bad if somebody did. The hug would have made a whole world of difference.
