Give me a HUG ?

"Give me hug?" was a video that my friend pass to me .
They have a version in many lenguages and they do th`is to show to the people the sensibility that still exist.
In streets from USA, Brazil and England they had put announcements that said "Give me a Hug?" and this is a healthy campaign because it helped the people to relax.
Personally , i liked this initiative very much.. and because of this i help to propagate this video.
