Will you help me find humour in the mundane? Will you join me as I struggle to find meaning amongst all the nonsense? Will you sit down next to me in my search for peace and happiness? Will you explain to me how small pieces of gravel always find their way into my footwear no matter what style I am wearing or what surface I am walking across?
