Wether you are one who commutes to work or not, you probably see, on your rides anywhere, a lot of colorful billboards telling you all sorts of things that you may or not need to know. It’s the new wave of advertising…Like this one, for example. Harsh? Don’t know…coming from a church? Well, they do have the passion of their conviction.
It is a wonder we can still stay on the road though…with all the blinking, and colors, and flashing, and all the enticing bits of information they put on these…and they are sooo many! And BIG!
They sell you things, give you things, offer you advice…you may argue they are quite useful in this fast paced life we all live. And you would have a point. Except one should…. slow down and smell the roses; not blink or they’ll miss their daughter’s childhood; wake up and smell the coffee; just chill; live each minute…or just think that “life is short” and one should leave an inheritance behind. I don’t mean the $$, but the batch of memories that we create every day.
Sure, billboards should make our fast life more informed and colorful. We deserve it. And they should. But where do we draw the line between what we should and should’t say “in color”?
Whatever the answer…just remember: the beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Have a super Thursday! With a side of wits, colors and authentic messages!
