AHA Moment

My "AHA" moment was during a discussion today on Meanings, Signs, and Symbols. What made me "AHA" was when our class reread part 3 of the article and I understood it better. Our teacher discussed the difference between a sign and a symbol and then it really clicked in my head. The difference is a sign is any representation of something else, a symbol is a specific kind of sign, one that is arbitrarily chosen.
