The One.
It may seem like there are hordes of people just waiting for “the one” or “that one person,” to come and save them from being alone, or to change them for the better, to be the rock, the foundation.

I always wondered why the symbol “ゆ” (said “yu”) was on the door to the bath house. I asked my Japanese teacher, and he wasn’t sure so I did a little research.
The symbol is used on the entrance to 温泉 (onsen) and 銭湯 (sento), or Japanese bath houses….
