Kindness and hugs Week 16

Time flies and we are already in week 16 of the Masterkey experience. We had a week focusing mainly on kindness, to see how kind we are and to do random acts of kindness without getting caught. We also observed kindness everywhere around us. This is very powerful as the participants of the Masterkey experience are everywhere in the world. So, the world got a bit kinder this week! For me, the most important act of kindness was to push myself out in the streets of a cold and rainy Brussels to give free hugs to people. Dominica and Solange were with me and we had a nice experience! It was an idea of Mark J. , the teacher of the Masterkey experience. He is doing the same in Kauai. Actually, I never did something similar and I am a shy person, but not for one second I felt the fear of rejection. I simply stayed open to what will happen…and then miracles happened, far beyond our expectations.

Of course, kids were open to get their hugs, but also jung boys and girls. Some were literally running toward us to get their hug, wow!  Then, more aged persons showed up and got their hugs, too, giving the way to very moving moments. I did not expect such a strong energy coming from hugging unknown people. I felt happy, strong and energised. Really, I recommend this experience to everyone. Just go out there and do it!! The world needs more kindness than ever. Even two military guys *remember that Brussels adopted stronger security measures* passed by and smiled at us (but could not get their hugs as they were on duty, they said).

I really want to express my gratitude to my beautiful friend Dominica to make it happen. Without her, I would not have done it. So, enjoy the video below (I am the one with long brown hairs, smiling and laughing all the time :).
