Free Hugs Campaign- Juan Mann

Mann原本長期居住倫敦,數年前回到澳洲。他在網站上寫道︰“站在接機室裡,看到許多人長開雙手、臉帶微笑的與等候的朋友和家人擁抱、歡笑,我當時也很希望有人在那裡等我,看到我時感到開心,對我微笑。擁抱我。”孤獨的他,深感自己成了“家鄉的旅客”,於是,他就隨意在紙上寫了“免費擁抱”的字樣,到市中心最繁忙的街道去尋找擁抱。可想而知,人們起初只是圍著他看,但過了15分鐘,開始有人上前與他擁抱,整個過程的錄像雖然只有短短3分半鐘,但非常溫馨。

Sometimes, a hug is all what we need. Free hugs is a real life controversial story of Juan Mann, A man whos sole mission was to reach out and hug a stranger to brighten up their lives. In this age of social disconnectivity and lack of human contact, the effects of the Free Hugs campaign became phenomenal.As this symbol of human hope spread accross the city, police and officials ordered the Free Hugs campaign BANNED. What we then witness is the true spirit of humanity come together in what can only be described as awe inspiring.

Very touched by this video clip. A hug can warm your heart, sweep away the loneliness, despair and it shows love.
