All I need.

I cultivate a handful of people. Maybe only four or five at a time. Mostly, my Italian true love. But also a friend or two. And maybe a new acquaintance. That's about all I can and care to handle. Don't like to spread myself thin. Maybe that's the biggest mistake of life. Trying to be everything to everybody. Not being selective. Politicians do it all the time. Trying to please everyone. If for no other reason than to raise money. To attain and stay in power. One must cultivate the money grubbers. To become monetarily rich. Or to have ready access to money. I know better. So much more to life. I value my true love. And several others. That's all I need. --Jim Broede
