You Are Not Here

October 2

You are not here, you’re with dreams.

Following them down familiar paths in your own head, an intricate series of imaginary waterslides that all begin with “what if…”

You are not here, you’re with your troubles.

Fighting an endless series of straw men, calculating, recalculating, trying to find a way through an impossible thicket of situations.

You are not here, you’re with your past, or your future, in your books, in your feelings, out of office, out of sight, and very possibly off your rocker. And if all of that feels like too much—or you tire of where you are—you may try just being here.

After all, here can be awfully nice.

Morning Reading is a daily email to help center yourself, reflect, and prepare for the day. It’s sent with love from your friend, Zach in Austin, Texas. He even drew the logo himself.
