Hey to those who politely read this post.
The day has come to ask ARUOK.
It is only one day a year, however it must be allowed to perpetuate.
It is of very little effort to ask AREUOK.
Use it at random. Use when you yourself feel it will help with your mood by just asking AREUOK.
Prepare yourself for the response.
Kind Regards
Wordman

@Jynx @wordman thinking back over your posts about R U Ok I find it a nice reminder to ask this of oneself or anyone any day of the year.
we don’t always know what some one else is dealing with.
By asking friend, family member etc on any day, especially if they don’t appear their usual self, it shows we care for them.
also to ask oneself at any time, R U Ok.
I find at times I forget to check in on myself and ask myself how I am going.
very much appreciate the reminder plus a different way to look at those 4 letters
