"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).

I'm Not Honking Because I love Jesus!

"I remember sitting out at a local Starbucks one day and hearing a guy honking profusely at someone who took his parking spot. It got so bad, I walked over to him and suggested he chill out. It got even worse when I saw his bumper sticker that read, “Christians aren’t perfect, just forgiven.” I, of course, referenced the dichotomy between his words and his actions, but he blurted out, “This is my wife’s car!”
