Recession 101:  What if nobody participated?    

Driving along a cut away street on the North East side of San Antonio I curiously came across these billboards. 

I couldn't believe my eyes and stopped the car and photographed each and every one.  I'm sure I was a spectacle to the cars driving by.  I hope the billboards were also a spectacle.  

I was so pleased that someone was out there putting positive words out to the masses.   

It was then that I read the story of how these billboards came to be.  An anonymous donor wanted to remind Americans to collectively "take a deep breath".  Have you ever heard of such a thing?  Not me.  Do I like it and appreciate it?  You bet.   

The entire campaign is geared to raising Americans spirits and lift them up according to the website:  www.recession101.org  or you can catch them on twitter:  twitter.com/recession101  

I tell you that morning there was nothing better than seeing these uplifting words "up in the sky".  

To anonymous donor, I thank you.  I'm sure many Americans would also give a "collective" sigh of relief too.    

Either we participate or we don't.

Hi, Barbara! I thought this was a great post when I read it on Sheila Moran's blog. I usually don't re-blog unless I think it's really worth it - and this one was!

Hi, Sheila! Got one good response... =)
