The Story of a Sign - Today is a Beautiful Day

On the way into the office this morning I was listening to Neal Boortz. Those of you familiar with him probably know that he is crusty, sometimes crude and rather impatient with some things. He posted a link to this on his website and recommended watching. It is very out of character with the persona he usually presents.

The winner of the 2008 Cannes Film Festival Online Competition Cannes 2008 is Alonso Alvarez Barreda for his short film Historia de un Letrero (The Story of a Sign) produced in Mexico/U.S.A.

It is a very moving, heart warming story of what one person can do to change the life of another in a postive way. How just a few simple words, a few seconds, can mean the difference between success and failure.

It made me think, what simple thing can I do that would make a difference?

What words can I change on my sign to make life better, for someone else as well as for myself?

I dare you to watch this and not be moved!
