"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).

Buy Back Market in Liberia

My Friend worked in Liberia for 28 years. There was a section of the local market that was revered to as the "buy back market". If you had something stolen, it often turned up in this market. If it was something dear to you, and you really missed it, you could "buy it back" and take it home. But you had to quick, within a few days after the theft, or someone else just "buy it" before you had the chance to "buy back"
