Freeway Signs and Organization
October 9th, 2007
I was on vacation for two weeks and all I did and saw was wonderful, but it is sure great to be home.
My daughter Debbie recently returned from Dubai in the United Arab Emirates. As I was looking at her pictures enjoying ‘visiting’ another part of the world through her photos it struck me how alike our freeways look to theirs. Their freeway signs are the green ones we are used to seeing. I commented on this and she said, yes that it felt very much the same, except for the insane way the drivers drove.
As my daughter Julie and I were traveling from Washington D.C. to West Virginia to visit Antietam and Harpers Ferry we were very familiar with the freeway signs as they are the same as we see anywhere in the United States and some foreign countries.
I was thinking how nice all this organization was planned by someone years ago so we can enjoy traveling a variety of roads and with the aid of maps know where we are going with the best possible ease.
Maybe because I am a professional home and office organizer I appreciate well laid plans like freeway signs. This is the same for us in our homes and offices. When we plan out what we want our place to look like and we have a goal to work towards it doesn’t matter what our living circumstances are (house, condo, apartment, house boat etc.). We will be able to find things and use them. This is a huge boost to our psychic and emotional well being and we can live with greater ease.
