The Latest from Me on Twitter

    Me in a Nutshell

    I've spent my entire professional life as a television network publicity and corporate communications executive at such places as Fox, GSN and Lifetime TV. I get a rush dealing with live broadcasts, tight deadlines and press conferences. I think I enjoy my job so much because I love working with the press. In addition to all that, I enjoy being an industry blogger and a social media expert and leading my own consulting firm in Los Angeles.

    A Sign for All Times

    Life is so random.  Today I was driving down a regular street in my town on the way to the freeway and I had to stop at a light. While there I noticed a handmade sign that was taped onto a post in the middle median. I could barely read it for it was hand-written in crayon no less, but when I got closer here’s what it said.

    Do you think this message was for you?

    I had to re-fashion the sign in photo shop for there was no way for me to get an actual photo of it without getting run over.  But, whoever thought of this was a brilliant marketer. This sign became a puzzle to me and drove me crazy trying to figure it out.  How does she know. How does she know what? I had to find out what this was about…they couldn’t leave me hanging right?

    Well, once I passed through the intersection, I got my answer, well sort of I guess for there was another sign. Here’s what part 2 said.

    I love this Message!

    You love her?  I didn’t see that coming, did you? But isn’t that an awesome statement.  I have no idea who put up this sign. Is it a local movement from a church? From a mother-in-law signaling her son-in-law to treat his wife better? Is it a sign to remind us to let our family and close friends know that we love them?  Is it a message from God causing us to think about how he cares for us?

    Whatever its origin, I think it’s applicable to every demographic.  It’s a brilliant message and a wonderful reminder.  I’m so glad that I stumbled upon it – it will impact me the rest of my life and hopefully cause me to make sure people know that I love them.

    What do you think these signs mean? Who do you think put this up and why? I’d love to hear your thoughts on this random posting. It still has me puzzled.

    Let’s chat.

      How does she know you love her? I think it’s a sign that life is short and how does someone know that you love them if you don’t take the time to tell them. To not only reach out and tell the people that are close you that you love them but to tell the stranger on the corner or the stranger in the store that you love them and that may be the one thing they need to hear along with Jesus Loves them too….Just a thought and wanted to share…

      Lori,
      Thank you for your view on the signs. I love your take on it and I have to admit I am not the best at reaching out to strangers…but I definitely need to improve on that. Thanks for commenting and providing great insight. Happy New Year!
      Love,
      Cindy
