Post #5: Free Hugs Campain

Okay. To be honest, I'm not a huge fan of hugs. I find them awkward; where do you put your arms? Which side will you be turning your head to? How long will you hold the said hug? Regardless of my disliking of hugs, I saw this video and felt like hugging a million people. The only one around was my dog, though. Long story short, I found out she doesn't really like hugs. Especially when she's in the middle of sleeping, which I completely understand. But you see, the nice fellow in this video did not walk up to sleeping strangers. Juan Mann went out in public, and offered a little love to anyone who needded it. He wanted to accomplish something, and didn't let ANYTHING stop him. This clip was sure inspiring for me, and although anything can inspire you and different things inspire different people... this has just GOT to make you smile. The following quote is from the description below the YouTube video, which now has accumulated over 73 million views within 6 years: "In this age of social-disconnection where mostly all of us lack that simple human touch from another, the effects of the Free Hugs Campaign are being felt around the globe. As this simple gesture of kindness and hope spreads across the city, police and officials ordered the Free Hugs Campaign BANNED. What we then witnessed was the true spirit of humanity as people came together in what can only be described as something awe inspiring,"
