When I was in undergrad, I lived right off one of the main bus lines in Austin so I would take the 1L/1M or the 101 to campus. Every once in a while I would miss the bus by a minute or two, or the bus would be too full after picking up students at the Triangle, so I would walk the half a mile or so to campus. This soon became the norm rather than the exception, and I started to really enjoy it every day, until the summer heat set in that is. I noticed little quirks of my neighborhood I never would have seen otherwise. I've been walking between offices for my summer jobs for a week now and just noticed this signpost today. It, of course, tickled me pink as it is in Russian. The phrase translates to: "let peace prevail throughout the world." This simple discovery definitely put a smile on my face! Apparently taking a little walk reveals some of life's little pleasures.
