"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).

Becoming a Lousy Follower!

Albert Einstein is reputed to have said,

"The problems that exist in the world today cannot be solved by the level of thinking that created them."

Why would we follow the herds mindless thinking that brought us here, when all they ever offer is more and more cosmetic coverup, trivial tweaks and modifications, that amount to us doing the same thing, but "better", at the end of the day?

We need a whole new kind of thinking. Be ready, when you start thinking, you become some other "leaders" lousy follower. The fire gets stoked.
