This was wonderful... I'm still crying but I'm inspired.

1. I've bookmarked it
How moving. :-)

What a great idea. I'd love to try this out, perhaps get a couple of friends and try it in my city. (I'm more than happy to give out hugs)

2. Wow!
I never would have expected to have that kind of visceral reaction to a bunch of strangers hugging. I was practically sobbing. Thank you.

Sad thing is, I would have walked on by needing that free hug more than anything in the world.

4. I'm going to give them out this weekend...
I think we all could use a bit more hugging in this world.... and while I'm normally a nice handshake sort of woman, this time...

We need it.
