Now there's a word you don't see that often. Vividly. And I think that's even one of those words that if you say it too much it starts to lose its meaning.I actually like the visual of this sign all the Ls in a row at the right. Vividly, Difficulty, Likely.
And it's a very staccato message. With the -ly at the end. Vividly. Difficulty. Likely. It kind of has a sing-songy thing going for it.
But back to the actual message. Do you want to know the funny thing about this one? I've started to pass out my Moocards. These are little mini business cards that you can print photos on. So I decided it would be funny if I printed Milt and Edit signs on the cards and passed them out like little fortune cookies to people. And last night was my first opportunity. So I passed this one out to a person who I thought could benefit from vividly realizing a difficulty.
And the first thing that my friend Cassandra said when looking at this card? "Why does it say a man?" That just cracks me up. I'm as much of a feminist as anyone. Seriously if you know me, I'm all about the women and the equal rights and equal pay. But if there's one thing I'm okay with, it's the quotes that say "man" in them. I'm not all about the need to "human" everything. I get it. I can make the leap from man to woman. It doesn't bother me. I've got other things to fight for like making sure that I get that dollar that my male boss is getting.
It was just so funny how I didn't even read that into the quote and that was the first thing that my friend saw.
