happiness is a foreign land.
i don't speak the language.
and i have no map.

your invisible sherpa
(in her lambswool cap)
is tugging you along,
whispering translations,
telling you
the only rule is
put one foot
in front of the other.

The best thing about happiness ... you don't actually need that map. As brooklyn doughnut said, you just put one foot in front of the other. Every day.

Besides you're an intrepid traveler, and I can't help but be reminded of your experience in Moscow (yes?) where you were trying to get somewhere on a bus using sign language to communicate. Were you trying to find a circus or were there circus performers on the bus? This is starting to sound like a dream, but I'd swear it (or something very like it) really happened to you.
