Truth of the day…

Let your boat of life be light,

packed with only what you need,

a homely home and simple pleasures,

one or two good friends worth the name,

someone to love and someone to love you,

a cat, a dog, and a pipe or two, 

enough to eat and enough to wear,

and a little more than enough to drink;

for thirst is a dangerous thing.

— Jerome K. Jerome
