A weekend with my family in Minnesota's beautiful lake country helps to remind me what matters.
I don't need to - earn six figures/end global poverty/travel the world/be CEO - to be happy.
I'll be just fine with-
a yard and some flowers ... kids and then grandkids ... church every Sunday ... birthdays, anniversaries, weddings, baptisms ... friends to grow old with ... someone I am in love with forever ...
and a summer day up north at the lake.

at a little wooden cabin
up in northern minnesota
we ran together down to the dock
and you jumped right off it
and from out in the water
you called me to join you
and i said baby i cannot swim
if i jump i’ll surely drown you
you said life has no limit
if you’re not afraid to get in it
and oh baby i jumped to you
since then there’s nothing i can’t do
i'm never gonna give you up
what do you got if you ain't got love
If You Ain't Got Love, Mason Jennings
