The Hug The perfect gift for someone who has everything. The Hug Costs nothing, yet it is a priceless gift. The Hug a gift to both the giver and receiver. The Hug a gift in times of sorrow and times of joy. The Hug a gift that keeps on giving and giving. The Hug No moving parts, no batteries, non-taxable. The Hug Just fits in the heart, one size fits all.

The Hug always warms the heart,makes everyone feel good. The Hug are always understood every place and any language. The Hug share sad times we go through, and times of joy. The Hug makes leaving easier, arriving greater. The Hug are meant to say "You are Special" The Hug are meant to say "I care" The Hug are meant to say "I am here for you" The Hug Just open up your arms and your heart. The Hug (And of course, fully returnable!)

Looking forward to creating more of those unforgettable smiles seen on some of the videos above. :-)

"Hugging is universal"

It reminds me how the African traditional societies take hugging seriously and if one isn't positive to it, he/she is seen as impolite.

In fact Its the main way of greeting in my original culture which of recent has been contaminated.

I was humbled and thrilled to watch some of the videos above.

"A hug is essential and says it all"

Hugs to all

A warm welcome hug to Comrade Karekoona. So delighted to have you here. Was wondering if one of the reasons there were no videos of Free Hugs in Africa was that very reason - that they were common place?

Thank you again for visiting this thread where all beings are so very precious and honored.

Again a gentle welcome.

Offering a welcome hug to Kayiwa Fred. (Let's see if he accepts.) :-)

Will send this to him in a PM with feedback point(s) and a link to this thread like:

{{{{{{ Hugs to Marissa }}}}} Welcome to Free Hugs

A hug is form of physical intimacy that generally involves closing or holding the arms around another person. The hug is probably the most common human sign of love and affection.[1] A hug is also exchanged as a sign of support and comfort. A hug is the exchange of warmth, usually arising out of joy or happiness at meeting someone. It is practiced in almost all nations, countries, religions and sects. Children hug their parents at bedtime. Many people hug on holidays, such as Mother's Day, or Christmas.

Its roots can be traced to many thousands of years ago. Brief in most cases, it be pursued to show many levels of affection. It is not peculiar to human beings alone as there are many species of animals, which engage in a similar exchange of warmth. FROM WIKIPEDIA
