Symbolic

Symbols.  They are all around us. Without really thinking, we respond to six sided STOP signs, traffic lights, hazardous chemical marks, UL branding, the recycling arrow symbol, text alerts, street crossing ways, handicap signs, and of course the yellow smile face (thanks Forest Gump). I’m sure you can think of many more. One symbol, that still […]
