A Photographer Persuades Strangers To Do Something Really Odd, And They Totally Love It

This is really neat! CLICK ME!

This photographer found a unique way of breaking through that barrier we all put up. Imagine all those people we walk by on the street, never knowing anything about them, never stopping and saying hello. Standing in line keeping a foot or two between each other. With that barrier up we don't truly feel that sensation of close love we have for one another... for everyone. Conversation usually is what slowly breaks down that social barrier, starting to get to know someone, letting in to their personal life to find a commonality. The fact is we all share a commonality... we are all here together. Experiencing that which is life... together.

Haha this is cool. I always feel like people are to distant from eachother. Why can't strangers just embrace eachother?

Awesome - thanks for finding that link. I searched but my search skills need some work. 8)

And @ anarchy - thank you for posting that. Made my day. Not to the point where I am rushing out to embrace strangers, but a hair away.

Cheers,

Although I like the idea, I wasn't so impressed with the photos. But my eyes were prickling with tears at the end. I sincerely believe that in a time long past, human beings were happy and loving towards all - truly a paradise lost.
