You may remember a YouTube video of a young man who decided to stand on Pitt Street Mall in Sydney and offer free hugs to passers-by. With a huge sign held over his head advertising his offer, he was initially avoided, then one-by-one people of all ages, sexes, nationalities took him up on his offer. I hadn't seen it for ages and was reminded of it recently when Today Tonight (I think it was) showed the top YouTube videos ... this was the top one.

Watching strangers connect filled my heart.
One person, putting himself out there, being vulnerable made a huge
difference to so many people. Human contact at all levels is so
important for our health and wellbeing. We need to connect - firstly
with ourselves, then with others. That's why it's so important to step
beyond the limitations we place on ourselves when we feel like
imposters.
For a great confirmation of how
the world could be, check out the
video: http://twurl.nl/2zwag6. It will bring a smile to
your face.
I hope you have a wonderful day.
All the very best
Suzanne
