because hugs are worth petitioning for...

Jana, I really loved this free hugs guy. How cool an idea is that? It made me wonder if I'd be someone who walked by him shaking my head or if I'd trust myself to give and receive a simple hug, no strings attached. I really loved the little tiny old lady who hugged him and touched his face...

I love him, too! I had to ponder long and hard if I would do the hug thing. I'm not much of a hugger, and I'm certainly wary of bodily contact w/strange men, but I'd like to think I would do it. :) My kids said they would wave and smile but not hug. I thought that a totally appropriate answer from them--they are cautious but friendly :)
