Zoot

A gesture of affection that consists of hands gently bouncing through the air from your heart to another’s heart and saying the words “zoot, zoot, zoot”!

Little hearts flying through space from one heart to another or from one person to another.

A symbol to represent 'I love you' or "I am sending you love'.

The term originated from Amanda Gore's mother and is explained in detail in Amanda Gore's book "The Gospel of Joy" (now called "Joy is an Inside Job")

They are a way to symbolically forgive another; tell someone you love them or connect through writing or phone messages.

You have just dropped your child off at school and they look back at you and you make the gesture out the car window towards them and say "zoot zoot zoot!"

If they are not teenagers, they usually respond! If they are teenagers, they grimace but their hearts sing!
