Something quite amazing is going on, it goes beyond the goodness of any religion or creed, and I saw it in action today in Oxford City Centre.
Its the Free Hugs Campaign, which is a campaign where people out of pure selfless kindness offer hugs (aka cuddles) as a method of support to anyone who approaches. Its truly amazing, as the hugs benefit not only the participants but also the onlookers, who will smile or laugh. Its not only adds support, but its increases happiness. Its a great form of altruism.
Its great because its completely non-religious, but morally altruistic… it does also fulfill so many religious teachings of loving and caring for everybody. I might take part in the future, as its definitely worthwhile.
I am amazed, and very very happy that this movement is happening… maybe there is hope for humanity after all.

My uncle and his friend were there on that day offering hugs to peeps and he really enjoyed himself and got lots of hugs although he is not a young man anymore lol
I think it’s a great idea - I’ve seen some of the videos from around the world for it.
And you know I love hugs!
