"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).

Sick Far From Home.

I've been sick in a foreign country....Bad malaria etc, and I had three kids hospitalized with high fevers too.  It is as empty a feeling as you can experience.

"You are never as far away from home as when you get sick in a foreign country."
 (Mike Tidwell. The Ponds of Kalambayi, pg 24).
