Signs

Josie asked me to make her a sign that says "Stay Out". She wanted the sign to hang on her door. Instantly and dorkily (yeah I don't think that's a word) I started singing to myself "signs, signs, everywhere there's signs". Then my distorted mind goes to, wouldn't it be great if people came with signs. Signs to let others know exactly what they're getting. Like a nutrition label for humans. Haven't we all meet people, friended them, and then asked ourselves, I didn't know I was getting this as a friend. If we came with signs, we'd know ahead! LOL! Can't you just see it now, in big bold letters: Im Fake. I lie. I cheat. Im happy. Im truthful. I theive. Im golden. Im true. Im angry. Im two-faced. Im pure. Im long-suffering. Im lazy. Im positive. Im negative. I laugh. Im genuine. At one time or another, we have all needed a sign or two or three. I hate to admit it, but sometimes people have warnings all over them and we still try to find the good or make up the good... yay us, or is it? Not everything can be positive as much as we try to force it to be. Just wondering what big bold letters would be on my back for the world to see? (eyebrow raise here)
