If You Had a Freeway Billboard, What Would It Say?
I’ve often wondered what message I’d share with the world if I had just one chance — a single, towering billboard on a busy freeway where thousands of cars rush past every day. In a place where everyone moves fast, minds cluttered with deadlines and destinations, what words could possibly make someone pause, even for a second?
After some reflection, I know what mine would say:
“Slow down. You’re already enough.”
In those six words lies a gentle truth we often forget. We’re constantly racing toward something — the next task, the next milestone, the next version of ourselves that we think will finally be “worthy.” But the truth is, we are already enough, even before we cross those invisible finish lines.
Imagine the scene: a commuter stuck in traffic, glancing up from frustration or exhaustion, only to see that quiet message hanging above them. Maybe for a moment, their shoulders drop. Maybe they take a deeper breath. Maybe they remember that life isn’t just about speed — it’s about presence.
Our days can feel like freeways themselves — full of noise, movement, and direction, yet often missing meaning. Sometimes, just one small message can reroute our perspective, reminding us that peace isn’t found in the next exit, but in the stillness within.
If you had a billboard, what would you want the world to read from it? Would it be a call to action, a whisper of hope, or a line of humor that makes someone smile between stoplights? Whatever your message, choose words that feel true — because somewhere out there, someone might need to hear exactly that.
