if i ask for a hug, would you say that you need longer arms in order to reach me?

If I had no arms, would it still count as a hug?

ahhhh.....what is a hug, after all?

Smokey Moonlight said...

:) surely arms are not pre-requisite to give a hug,but intention is....but what happens to the hug if theres no one to recieve it??

anne artist said...

so if a hug is an intention, does there need to be someone there to receive it?

Rob said...

Why do we pat a person twice to signal to them we are done hugging?

:) well the hug doesn't have an independent existence so it must have an object, just like a slap, a kiss or a punch...but you could wrap your arms around your own self real tight and give it to yourself, coz no one else will...

anne artist said...

what about sara's comment about the intent to hug? no, it isn't the same as a hug but what is it? and if i feel the intent to hug myself, what am i feeling?

Bleeding Healer said...

if feelings can be expressed,why is hug an intention?
if I hug myself,am I lonely?
what does a hug say?
Ohk maybe i am rambling on, but I simply love your blog, it´s just amazing to read your post and the comments, i am pretty amateur in all this!!!!!so I don´t have the right questions to ask.On that note, is there ever a right question?

anne artist said...

does intention come before feeling? or not? how do the two interrelate?

if you hug yourself, are you expressing love? can love expressed be also lonely?

yes, what does a hug say?

thank you for your questions! to me, asking a question is freedom. and newness. and the celebration of it all.

your questions go beyond right or wrong. they are art.....seems to me.

Bailee said...

Your drawings and the reason for having this blog is extraodinary. You really have talentn :)I have to agree with Bleeding Healer.

Malek Ku said...

nice one..i followed ur blog

A girl addicted to game said...

it's very hug,ahhhh.....

Bleeding Healer said...

is the intention the feeling?or they are two different aspects?or is that you feel that´s why you intent to do something to express it?
is love is lonely,how is it that you are expressing it to others?

wow.,i so like this.,

if i hug u, will u hug me back? ;)

anne artist said...

could i receive a hug without hugging back on some level?

Sally Ang said...

If i look different,and behave differently, would you still hug me?? ....what if i ask for your hug but i won't want to hug you back ...would you still do it ?? Guess arm lengths does not make a difference....we can come closer to each other ....then again ....is the person's controlled actions that make the difference :)

anne artist said...

differently than you usually are or different than other people?

people's controlled actions......another thing to ponder.

candleflame said...

A hug is a gift of emotion.
When you hug someone, you are exposing your vulnerable part (chest) to the person ur hugging.
The gift can be recieved, but first it must be given.

In my opinion, a hug is not an intention. For an intention itself cannot comfort a friend, cant express great happiness or sadness.

anne artist said...

i like the idea of a hug expressing vulnerability. in that respect, i don't know how we could "intend" to be vulnerable. is there a way?

candleflame said...

i guess by doing that, you are trusting that person you are hugging.

anne artist said...

or that you trust yourself even when vulnerable....?

Toni Tralala said...

This is such a creative blog. I like it a lot! <3

Sally Ang said...

Pooh(Ger)girl1996 had enlightened me ....thanks ....well guess in my own context....hugging does not always occur ....i hope i am hugged more often ....then again becos of the lack of hugging ....do you think i am an unlovable person ??

anne artist said...

perhaps the people you know have very short arms....

Sally Ang said...

What make them to have short arms ??Maybe they have very busy arms ??Maybe their arms are entangled ??Well, maybe i should offer myself to be hugged ....then again if i do am i intending myself to be vulnerable ??

anne artist said...

does business or entanglement shorten arms? perhaps many things can.

and offering yourself to be hugged.....there is a beauty in that, it seems.

Anonymous said...

why do want to ask for a hug? u can always reach out and hug the person u want the hug from.......coz by huggin u give and take at the same time......is askign really necessary?

anne artist said...

is it necessary? i don't know. are there times when a person might want to ask?

The Boo said...

I think a hug is the physical action that accompanies the intent of comforting or showing you care.

anne artist said...

if a hug is given, not with the intent to comfort but with the intent to appear to be comforting, what happens then?

Jessica said...

if my arms were to short to reach you would you feel the intent

anne artist said...

lovely, in a way.

perhaps, if i saw you reach out, then i could feel the intent....and the hug as it would have been.

The Boo said...

Then it depends on how the person receiving the hug views the intent. They decide whether it is comforting, or just an attempt to appear comforting.

anne artist said...

well, that's a point to be taken into consideration!
