Don’t Stop For Stop Signs

I was in a little car, driving by myself on this seemingly endless road that was just littered with signs. And I had to figure out which ones to follow and which ones to ignore. Some of them were signs I had seen before, but they had different meanings in this dream. I could just feel it. There were stop signs at every exit, with arrows pointing to the ramps, like they meant “stop searching,” not “stop moving.” I thought, where’s the sign for happiness? And then I saw it, “Happiness Ahead,” a million miles in the distance.
