25.01.2022 You must choose between your attachments and happiness. - Adyashanti #success #quote #failure

25.01.2022 Why did I embraced my removalist in a loving HUG? Id like to share with you a touching encounter I had with one of the removalists moving my home over the weekend. At one point he looked upset. When I asked him if he was okay he went on to tell me he lost his 20 year old son just 2 weeks earlier in a car crash and his birthday was today. He went on to speak about how he was feeling and how he was struggling, then began to breakdown in front of me in my kitchen. I did the o...nly thing that felt right and natural. With no words spoken I stretched my arms out offering him a hug to which he accepted. I must admit I was little hesitant offering an almost stranger a hug but so glad I did, he needed it. When he was leaving he thanked me so much for my gesture and how much it had meant to him. Whilst he walked down the corridor after saying goodbye my 5 year old Addison asked if she too could give him a hug to which I replied of course. Off she ran. When she caught up to him he kneeled down and she gave him a super big hug. As a bystander this time around I witnessed the overwhelming impact it had on this gentleman, as tears rolled down his face and he smiled. Again he thanked us repeatedly before disappearing around the corner. So why am I telling you this. To encourage you not to hold back and offer a hug when the day comes when you too are in a situation with a stranger when they are in a an emotionally vulnerable state. I know that for some men this is easier said than done and an act that is less displayed. In particular I want to encourage and remind blokes that it is socially acceptable to hug another bloke. In fact it makes you more of a man. A man that can display such a gesture is confident, comfortable with himself and who he is as an individual. It only takes a hug to make someones day a better day.
