"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).

Pretending We know So Much!

"There is so much less to remember when I don't know much, and so much less pressure if I don't feel the need to know more than every other person in the room..... Perhaps our problems revolve not so much around knowing too little as around the perception that we know so much... People with a high sense of felt power tend not to hide it in conversation, a trait painfully obvious to others but apparently unknown to them." Earl Creps "Off Road Disciplines" pg 75 Jossey Bass, 2006
