It made me cry. Very beautiful post, Russ. Loved the quote at then end
*big hug*
Thank you, Michele! Big HUG right back to you!
Russ
A Spiritual Hug back at you!
Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for the Spiritual Hug and your comment, Patty! Spiritual Hug right back to you too!
Russ
I watched this video, listened this the song (one of my favorites) and it brought tears. To see the resistance from many and the melting of others……amazing. Sometimes that’s all we really need. A hug from a caring soul. Thanks for that, friend. Hugs to you, too ♥
Thank you, Paula. Yes, it was interesting to see the initial resistence, and then the first brave souls who took a risk. That opened up the floodgates of hugs.
I agree that few things are better or more comforting than a hug from a caring soul. Thank you for being a caring soul and sending hugs my way, and for being my friend!
Russ
Back at cha! ♥
How wonderful, there are many times in a persons life when all they need is a hug
Thank you, Manty. I agree. I don’t know who first invented the hug, but they deserve a Nobel Peace Prize!
Russ
Beautiful video
I agree. Thank you for your comment, Andrea!
Russ
Sometimes a hug can do so much for someone…I know it does for me…Really nice video..Diane
Thank you for your compliment, Diane. Hugs are wonderful things.
Russ
Loved the video! Thanks for posting the link. I used to give a “Hug License” to kids who came to my office when I was an elementary school principal. There’s nothing like a hug to drive away your tears and fears and make you feel a whole lot better!!
Thank you, Jan. I love the idea of a “Hug License”.
