"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).

Interesting!

After studying revolutions of the past 500 years Barna comments:

"To have a genuine revolution.....a genuine revolution is characterized in part by purposeful chaos. The conclusion I came to is efficiency is tremendiously overrated. And Yet, when you look at so much of what we try to do in our organized religious activities, one of the hallmarks of a "successful event" is that it was very effevient or it ran like clockwork. I don't know if that had anything to do. With blessing God and blessing Gods people" George Barna radio interview (frankviola.com)
