Anyone need a hug today?

I don't know why, but this brought tears to my eyes. I'm such a sap....

Didnt think it would effect me ,but yes ,a few tears here too. I think it was the music that went along with the video.

Oh geez thanks. Now I am all teary eyed and I want a frickin hug.... (I started tearing up when the guy at the mall JUMPed into his buddies arms. That was cool)....

My nose is runny. I need a tissue. Anyone got a tissue?

Analytically speaking, I was doing fine until some of those hugs that were simply too warm and sensitive for even this Vulcan heart to handle :-) The skateboard ones were cute... but it was the bend-down-and-hold-you... and I didn't have the sound on; I'll try that at work.

That was cool. Just a bit damp around the eyes here. I'd have hugged him. I'm a hugger from waaaaaay back. Geez, now I need a one... I gotta get a dog, and soon. :cool:

There's something so real and connected when you hug. I came from a non-hugging family (all boys) and then they married hugging women. Jeez! What was I to do? A non-hugger among huggers? Well, I shyed(sp?) away.

And then we started having children. And there is something about babies that make you want to hug...and love and then hug again. And then I just started hugging my brothers because they brought these little huggable lovelies into my life. And when I gave birth to my own huggable guy...well...:D I found out why hugging is loving.

I've lost my ability to hug in certain times of my life....but this clip reminds me that I can include other people in my hugs.

After reading the responses from those who had already watched, I decided I had to check it out. What a great video! I found myself smiling, laughing and.....tearing up. I agree with everyone, the music was perfect. Now I have to copy, paste and forward on.

Thanks for sharing kelownagirl!

Here's a ((((((hug)))))) from me to everyone :D

Wow thanks for sharing the link. I think that might be Sydney Australia. Who would have guessed that Sydney siders would be big huggers. Well done Sydney.

A big hug to all.:) :)

I was trying to figure out where it was filmed!

My sister sent me the link when I was feeling down. Hubby was off to visit his very ill mom whom I adore and I couldn't go visit. Happily, he's back now and my hugs have resumed. Mom is doing better today too so his hugs to her must have helped. :)
