New Delhi (Staff Correspondent): An emotional social media post by Pratap Suthan, an advertising professional from Delhi, has touched thousands of hearts. In the post shared on LinkedIn, he shared a poignant memory of his last hug with his late wife. A hug that seemed ordinary at the time, but has now become a sacred and indelible memory for a lifetime.
Pratap Suthan in his post recalled the morning when he was hugging his wife before she went to the hospital. At that time it was just a normal hug – a routine one. But now, that one moment has become the most important moment of life.
He wrote, “That day I just hugged her like we did every day. But now I understand how special that hug was. For me it was full of hope, but perhaps for her it was a silent goodbye – a forever goodbye.”
The power of a hug — a language without words
Pratap expressed the power of ‘touch’ in a very moving way in his post. He wrote that a hug is not just a physical contact, but a medium through which we can share deep emotions without saying anything. It becomes a symbol of love, affection, empathy, and sometimes even a final farewell.
“A hug can stop time,” he wrote. “It can be a mother holding a son going to war, a father holding his newborn for the first time, or two lovers meeting after years. Even two strangers can hug in a frustrating moment and provide silent support.”
The importance of human connection in the digital age
Pratap’s message resonates in today’s world where digital connection is there but real touch and emotional connection is lacking. He urged people that if they get an opportunity to hug someone, they should do it with full passion — as if that hug is the most important moment of life. He wrote, “If you get a chance to hug someone today — do it with all your heart. As if you really understand how much it means.”
Emotions pour in on the internet
The post went viral on social media. Thousands of people responded emotionally, and thanked Pratap for this simple yet profound message. One user wrote, “Very emotional post, your sentiments have come straight from the heart and reached our hearts. You have reminded us again the importance of relationships.” Another said, “Sometimes a lifetime of emotions are contained in one hug. Got teary eyed reading this.” A third wrote, “I was not ready to cry when I read this post.”
Pratap Suthan’s post is testimony to the fact that true emotions, whether they are bound in words or in a hug, reach straight to the heart. It is a sweet and profound reminder that life’s most valuable moments often look the most ordinary — until they become memories that change us for a lifetime.
