A hug can brighten a person's day, a hug can do miracles. A hug says it all - " I care, I love you." That's all we need in life. To be cared for and to be loved. That's what keeps us going.
Yesterday, my brother's CCM's friend, Lynie, msged me on msn and said :"can you give your brother a big bear hug and say 'god's goin to prove you wrong, he's goin to blow you away with his miracles!' ? " I said YES straight away, just my nature, I don't say NO to ppl. But I was thinking, should I actually do it? I don't hug my brother randomly, only when I don't see him for ages then I will give him a hug. Besides, would he even believe the words that come out from my mouth knowing that I don't believe in God? What's the point saying something that I don't mean it and he knows that I don't mean it as well?
In the end, I decided to go ahead with it. Why? Coz my instinct said so. Somehow, I believe that if I said that to him and gave him a big hug, he would be happy, he would smile. I'm sure Lynie had a reason behind all this. Maybe it's because he didn't agree with something God said hence she said God's gna prove him wrong. Maybe he didn't believe God is that powerful, hence she said God's gna blow him away with his miracles. Maybe.... all my brother wanted was a hug from me!!!! HAha!! I don't believe in God, but deciding to go ahead with it and say that to my brother makes it seem that I want my brother to not stop believing in God. I guess it's because I just want him to be happy and not lose hope.
Some time last year, he seemed kinda sad. But later on after joining the youth group and going to church occasionally, he seemed a happier person. I suppose he's found someone there to guide him and to give him hope. I'm happy for him eventhough it meant that we're not sharing the same beliefs anymore. I just want people to be happy, that's the only thing that matters.
So today, after dinner, I gave him a hug.
"Koko, come here, I've got something to give you."
*big big bear hug along with the lines I took some time memorising*
End result: A giggle and a smile that lasted for quite some time. Maybe from the stairs (where I hugged him) till he sat down on the computer in the living room.
As for me, I felt like I've spreaded happiness in a way. It felt great. Ok, so I said something I don't believe in. Blehhh.... But if that is what it takes for a person to be happy, I would do that anytime :) Love making ppl happy, of course, a hug has to be in it :D
- sometimes all we need is a lil bit of love
