Saw this beautiful summery sign last week.
A boat trip for free at / from the raft station.
But we didn´t go, weather was good, so reckon it was full to the brim.
If I didn´t wear glasses there would be another option to get on river Oker:
But with my clumsiness that´s not a good idea and contacts are no option, either.
Here is a sign of a different kind, I found this again at FB, this is written in first person, but it is not from me:
"Damn, That's Interesting

Today I painted a new residents nails at work and as we were going over colors, she mentioned she wanted clear.

Today I painted a new residents nails at work and as we were going over colors, she mentioned she wanted clear.
The only thought that came to my mind was 'CLEAR?! That's no fun.'
I asked her why she wanted clear and she said,
'My hands are ugly, I don't want to draw attention to them.'
I then carefully responded with, 'Your hands tell the story of your life. They tell the story of love, of care and adventure. These hands have touched and held things that most people can only wish to one day.'
And with that, she went with the color pink for her nails.

A sign you should see things from another perspective once in a while.
So, with all of these I join Tom´s Signs2.
And, not done yet:
On the subject of talent
I don't have any special talent. I'm just passionately curious."

I really like that: hands that tell a story. I suddenly look at my own old hands in a different way
Lovely post Iris-hugs
That´s good :-)
Thank you, Kathy, hugs
That story you posted about hands could also say a lot about aging. It is a story of our lives, but then getting old can be scary. I like curious people. That's a great Einstein quote. Have a great rest of your day Iris. hugs-Erika
Erika, yes, the story is about aging. After all the woman is in a nursing home (if I got that right).
Still more Einstein on the way, hugs
That is a sweet story about the hands, Iris.
Beautiful fingernails, though! I like your comment to that woman.
Yes, I thought worth sharing :-)
Different angle - goes for much in life, huh...
Wonderful story about the woman's hand.
Yes, nice the young lady had these kind words to change the woman´s view.
The story of the nail polish is very uplifting.
Wonderful signs and a great story!
That´s why I shared :-)
Good combi, huh :-)
I would love to go on a boat ride but this year it won't happen, sadly.
I wrote a poem once about hands, the stories they tell. I wonder what I did with it.
