I'm a marshmallow
A friend of mine posted this on her blog recently, and I thought it was one of the most heartwarming things I'd seen in a long time.
The little old lady at 0:50? When she touches his face? It just gets me. I loved those that took a running jump at the person they were hugging, too. Seeing this made even my deeply cynical side smile a little. Makes me want to be a bit less jaded and a lot more open to the people and the world around me.
Maybe it's the fact that I've gone through some personal tragedy lately, or maybe it's just because I need to be reminded that there are still good-hearted people in the world, but seeing this video did me a world of good. I feel better now, all warm and fuzzy.
I hope it brightens your day, too.

Now, that was very cool. That guy should be very proud.

The "Free Hug" guys have been there a few times I've been visiting. I've always been a bit too mistrustful to take them up on it, which is exactly the point!
