"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).

When Not Helping Hurts!

We are working in West Africa. With simple drip irrigation supplied by gravity fed water from a small five gallon bucket, we are helping people grow gardens in drought conditions, just south of the Sahara Desert.
80-90% less water than hand watering.  This

Child's family is benefiting. From this project.

 Following is picture of a garden growing on such a system. This picture is taken in Peek drought conditions. It has not rained for over 4.5 months  in temperatures reaching 40 c.
