There are so many signs in our world, aren’t there? Signs to tell us where to go, signs to tell us what — and what not — to do, advertisements, warnings, and so many more.
It’s no wonder that we’ve developed a bad habit of glazing passed them without much notice. While that can be dangerous if it’s a stop sign, it usually just means that the makers of the sign need to work harder to make us notice.
