This message is scratched into a table at an office where my weekly meditation group gathers. It's the office of a therapist.
The first few times I saw this, I didn't look too closely, but thought it said 'you are here.'
True, you are here. But it's not a 'Kilroy was here type of message.' It's much more profound.
'You. Are. You. Here.' is a great reflection on therapy. And a great message to carry daily.
I like to think the angry child, frustrated spouse, bored teen sitting in the waiting room was passing on a message of comfort to us all.
y r u here.
.... wherever you are.UPDATE inspired by my friend Kate who said on Facebook: 'I thought it was a question... why are you here?"
Now that she says that, I remember thinking that also when I first saw this a few weeks ago. But last night when I saw it again, my mind just stuck on the optimistic side. I guess I hoped the carver had left a positive lesson for us all. And besides, the grammarian in me just didn't see the invisible question mark!
