Wouldn't it be nice if we had road signs to direct us in life? Not just for driving but for everyday decisions, or even major life decisions. Sometimes, a little direction would make all the difference.

"Dead End"

Ever heard the phrase "dead end job"? What if we were given a sign (literally) that this is where our career path was heading? Better turn around, that road will not take you where you wanna go.




"Detour"

Sometimes, life throws us unexpected changes. A little warning would be nice- just a slight detour in the path we were expecting to take.




"Bump Ahead"

Or maybe there's a bump in the road up ahead -- in this case, figuratively speaking. Whatever it is, brace yourself. Life is bumpy but at least you've been warned.


"Keep Right"

Or maybe you'd like to avoid that bump altogether. This sign could give you advance notice so you can prevent running into all of those obstacles.


"Slow"

Sometimes maybe you're just hustlin' and living life in the fast lane, but you need to just slow down, and notice things around you. This could be a reminder to chill out and be grateful for what you have.


"Turn Around/U-Turn"

Like the way that our lives often get redirected, and sometimes leave us with no outlet after we go down an unsuccessful road, here is a sign to tell us to just turn around and try something else.


"Intersection Ahead"

Or maybe a warning that we have a big decision to make ahead of us. A literal fork in the road, a metaphoric change of direction with our life.


Now, I believe in signs, that if we're paying attention to them, can direct us through our lives. But what if there were literal signs? Life is a winding road. The shocking twists and unexpected turns are what make it interesting, painful, and exciting.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together.

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer.
