I hugged strangers and it was MAGIC! You see (the woman) in the red sari, not only hugged me, she kissed me, and then proceeded to KISS MY FRIEND (the reason her mobile shook) who was helping. Made people hug each other too... you see love is contagious! NOW I WANNA DO THIS EVERY YEAR! Maybe next year you can join me. Smile. Spread love!".
