You seem to be a great girl! That was really nice. I cried too you know when I saw that video... and yes why is our culture like this? I'm afraid the answer is pretty sinister.. oh well...change will come. It has to. Like a pendulum turning back to base. Around and around we go.
Thank YOU for the Hug, from the North of Scotland!! Thanks for your video. I could not agree more, we need Hugs, we all need lots of Hugs. Oh, for the true meaning and feeling of a Hug and just holding, perhaps a complete stranger for a moment or two!!!! Love and Peace and Hugs!!!!! Thankyou for making your video.
well i hope yo get to read this sometime, im sending a hug from argentina, i wish i could hug you for real, sounds kind of scary but isn't that all about? i hope u can get me.hug
Do not give hugs in the US. You will go to jail! If you would like to send someone to Iraq to kill and be killed, by all means feel free to do that. Crazy country.
Human beings discovered in the past that a hug is the perfect way to say something that a word can't ever say. It can make your day better, it can change your life. It's like a miracle that warms two hearts who hug themselves when you are hugging someone.
But sometimes, looks like whe forgot all those things...
We've got to hug more often. We've got to let that miracle happen!
Then COME TO BRAZIL!! lol People here are very friendly and we love to hug!
You may hug one when you meet, when you leave, when you're sad or happy, when you're desperate and need faith or strong and confident. Whatever the occasion is, it's always time to hug someone.
you know what i feel the same way i mean wee need a hug every day!!!!!! weather it's a good day or a bad day! i give hugs out everyday and it makes them feel soooooooooooooooo mutch better:) i feel you and i hope we meet and i can give you a great big hug:)
Hugs from South Carolina. It really is so amazing that something we probably all take for granted makes so many people so happy. I didn't even get hugged and I feel happier.
Awesome Video Response! I Never Really Realized How Lucky I Am To Live In A City Where Everyone Knows Everyone, Everyone Talks, Everyone Loves And Thanks For Making Me See That! Big Hugs To You!! God Bless, xoxox!!
..and technology DOES bring us closer in the sense that we can be in different parts of the world and communicate but it doesn't give us the sort of comfort that we get from hugs
The things that you say about the technology is true, but I believe that your mom says about, is that you cannot give or recieve a hug or a kiss, I believe that technology has the good and bad side, like anything in life, we have to know how to use the both side in favor of all of us.
Here's a big hug from California! =) I loved the free hugs video and I also cryed when I saw it. We are just getting very detached from everyone nowadays and it cant be good.
It's so true that thing about technology... at the end of the day that's what we have been working for since ever. So it's good it starts bringging us toghether. Lets not forget the human part and tha HUUGS
WOW ... YOUR A PSHYCO !!! ... i felt some emotion when a friend showed me the "free hugs" vid but then laughed continuously at yours ... maybe you just need some more friends ... they might hug you but then maybe not, and anials dont count, although they might not want to be friends either
i can't agree that technology brings you closer. The whole point of FREE HUGS is to show how hollow sitting alone in front of a computer compares to real physical interaction, even if it is a random hug. A hug from a stranger is always better than distant advice and support from web friends.
I heard this fellow being interviewed yesterday in Sydney. I was moved by both his video and your reply. It appears many of us living in first world countries are becoming alienated from each other in many ways. Your comments are bang on the money. I would like to give you a cyberhug!
I totally agree with everything you're saying. When I go to Burning Man or when I meet new friends at other times, I employ the "hugs not handshakes" methodology. It's much better for the soul. Namaste. :}
I never could put my finger on why my circle of friends is so close, and then I realize...we always hug when we see each other. Breaking down physical barriers helps to break down mental barriers and vice versa. Bring on the hugs!! (I cried, too.)
The Hugless American Dream: A McMansion with its own workout room, entertainment center, gourmet kitchen and spa bathroom. The result: People on cell phones unaware of anyone around them. Can I hug someone who wants a hug without it being a sexual overture?
hugs.. its almost a counterculture.. in a world ruled by fear and insecurities, it might be the best thing we can do, not just for each other but for ourselves. /hug
yes. i think we've become so insecure that it's taking that safe, comfortable technology piece to ease the discomfort of talking to people. technology also makes it easier to reach out to a new people group. if you're in a small town, the net lets you tap into cultural communities that don't exist nearby. i have to say: i love the people that i find via technology! you guys rawk!
Thats so true! The world moved the front porch mentality of sitting out front talking to neighbors to the back yard privacy fence with deck for immediate family. It like we are afraid to just say Hi to the person next door. Maybe for fear of rejection. Every think maybe you neighbor is thinking the same thing? Big hug for you!!
