Hugging NY - The Chief Happiness Officer Blog

Hugging NY - The Chief Happiness Officer Blog Theres a kinda funny kinda sad story on NY Times about one Jayson Littman. He is a financial analyst who happens to think that New Yorkers could use a hug. So it was, a month ago, that Mr. Littman began distributing hugs free from 1 to 4 p.m. on Sundays in Washington Square Park in Greenwich Village. At first I thought no one would respond, said Mr. Littman, 26, who lives in Manhattan. But on his first Sunday, standing before a giant hand-lettered sign that reads Free Hugs, Mr. Littman and a friend embraced 200 people in two and a half hours. Theres a lot of war and blood in the world right now, he said, and this helps to even it out. Thanks for visiting my blog.
