THRIVING THURSDAY

 

Pondering with a Purpose - Sign

Today's prompt is: Sign

The first thought to come to mind is “What sign are you?” That used to be a conversation starter many years ago. Is it still? I am a Pisces through and through. I am a dreamer of dreams and a wisher of wishes. In the Chinese horoscope I am a Water Dragon. Last year was the year of the Dragon and since I turned 60 and the water dragon is only around once every 60 years I was very lucky.

I often used to say that I signed my life away. It was usually on cheques to pay the bills. You don’t even have to sign the Mastercard anymore since the computer age and the chip came in. Does anyone even write cheques these days?

I also see rainbows and think of them as signs of goodness. I took a job once because the building had rainbows every day from a glass ceiling. It was just a prism effect but it made very happy to go to work.

There is also a song “Signs, signs everywhere are signs”. Don’t ask me who sang it but it was catchy. I suppose I could find the answer on the internet but I’ll leave that up to anyone who reads this.

I will sign off now and look forward to your pondering in the future. Thank you Brenda for showing us the way.

I never thought of the Zodiac sign. I'm a Leo, and the pig in the Chinese horoscope.

Life is full of signs from God and we have to watch for them.
I do still write a few checks but not like I use to.
Oh totally missed the "what's your sign" but it fits with signs being indicators!
I am a Virgo--but not your traditional stick in the mud kind by any means--something else got stuck in there--maybe my moon was in Venus or Scorpio? Oh well--I did know my Chinese sign but have forgotten it (I am 62) LOL--Yes, I remember that song-and no I do not remember who sang it--I still write checks once in a blue moon for myself--I still hand write them for one of my clients---

Well, I went immediately to the Five Man Electrical Band song, when I saw Brenda's prompt. My old hippie heart still identifies.

Wow...I never even thought of zodiac signs. I'm a Leo and a dragon...bossy any way you look at it! LOL

Tesla had a hit with that song in the 80s, but I know someone else did it before that.

5 Man Electrical Band - they're from Ottawa - just down the road from me!
My husband actually met Les Emerson once.

anyway, I never thought of Zodiac signs. I am Taurus - through and through. I have no idea about the Chinese calendar thing. I wrote a cheque just this morning! I had to pay for the hot lunches at kids school and didn't have any cash at home. $15.00 -- that seems so lame. writing a cheque because I didn't have $15 measly bucks in the house at the time. LOL
