Reading the Signs (aka Lost, not the series)

Earlier this week, I did not read the signs. I found myself in a new locale and did not know 1) where I was or 2) how I arrived. It was only later that evening that I made notes of the road names so that I could find my way back to my beginning. [Note: The writer acknowledges that an argument exists for a GPS, but really, where is the fun in that?} How many times do we go through a day without reading the signs? Road signs, street signs, body language, facial expressions: all have a story if we are paying attention.
