On her blog, “Thoughts, Dots, and Tots,” Hailey portrays herself as a “mom, wife, Mormon, counselor, and professional worrier with a slight obsession with polka dots and zombies.” One morning, she encountered frustration due to traffic, particularly being stuck behind an older SUV. The vehicle appeared to be experiencing some issues, although Hailey was unaware of what they were until she approached close enough to read the sign posted on the back window of the Ford.

Upon reading the message, “Learning stick, sorry for any delay,” she experienced a sudden realization about herself rather than the SUV driver. Capturing a snapshot of the sign, she took to Facebook to share her insight not only about herself but also about the individuals we encounter on the road and in the world.
