"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).

Africa Always Waits

Thought this was a well written paragraph. Its by Emma Jones, a returning MK struggling with being "home"..... But wanting to go back home to Africa. Was on her blog today.

"But home would always be there, waiting for me like I never left. Stuck in this golden halo of warmth and stillness. Nothing moved too fast, nothing demanded too much of me. Life flowed like honey, slow and sweet, not in a loud and chaotic rush of lights and blaring noises. It was patient and kind...
Africa always waited...."
