Bold colors and strong but simple graphics always catch my eye. But after seeing a few too many versions of “Keep Calm and Carry On” I was beginning to feel like they were overused and cheesy. Yet, that feeling changed a few weeks ago when I saw this video on a friend’s blog. Because a good story changes everything. And this poster has an extraordinary story. One with quite a lot of depth and meaning. Never underestimate the power of a good story.
Some things I’ve been enjoying around the web:
I dissolve in laughter every.single.time. I see this…I promise I’m not a mean person but for some reason it tickles my funny bone.
If I had sons….WOW what a letter.
Now here’s how to maximize space! This loft is like a puzzle.
Love this post!
The kitten is hilarious–
And I have 4 boys.
And an iPad. 😉
A joyous Resurrection Day to you!
Lol! I”m so delighted it brought as much joy to you as it did me.
May Jesus give you grace and strength to raise the precious boys He has gifted you with who I’m sure are full of energy, fun, and dreams.
Haha that totally cracked me up…I don’t have an ipad but I do have an iphone…yet I still love paper so I won’t be getting a kindle or anything anytime soon.
A joyous Resurrection Day to you too!
The story behind the Keep Calm posters is so awesome! I want to visit that bookstore too!
So do I! 🙂
Thanks very much for the video about “Keep Calm”. Just a few days ago I was asking my friend where that meme originated. What a neat story behind it! 🙂
Yeah when I came across it I had no idea it would be so interesting. Glad you thought so too. 🙂
It was cool learning the history of it and strange that it was never actually used during the war as they had hoped it would be. I had wondered of the origins of the Keep Calm and Carry On logo, and so thanks for posting about it so I don’t have to feel confused any longer!! That book shop looks sooooo cool!
I found that interesting as well that they never used them and I wonder what happened to all the originals. Hmmm maybe they are for sale…?
You at least were smart enough to even wonder where it originated! 🙂 Um yes let’s both travel there and see that book shop. And just camp out there! 😉
