"When you begin to think outside the box, you often become some other "leaders" lousy follower. That usually costs something" (Andy Rayner)

"Our guardian angels are bored." (Mike Foster)

It's where I feel I'm at these days. “In the second half of life, it is good just to be a part of the general dance. We do not have to stand out, make defining moves, or be better than anyone else on the dance floor. Life is more participatory than assertive, and there is no need for strong or further self-definition” (Falling Upward. Richard Rohr.120).

No Answering Machines in Kenya

"Africa typically values people over machines. The message carries no weight if the person is not known, seen and heard: "How else does one explain the complete absence of answering machines in the modern city of Nairobi, Kenya?"
