Not everyone notices the signs in life. Do you? |
Late one spring afternoon a few years ago, I braked for a large turkey that had cautiously stepped into the street. Seeing that the coast was clear, it dipped back into a patch of tall grass and quickly emerged with chicks, no more than a couple of weeks old. As the seven birds filed across, it felt like a sign. Less than a minute later, with my teenager looking up possible meanings of birds in your path, a rabbit darted in front of us. We could hardly believe the timing. Then, a second one appeared, like an exclamation point to ensure the message hadn’t been missed.
