"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).

Don't Ask Me Questions... It Compromises My Control.........

"Do you see how the mere thought of questioning this uniformity inspires panic in you? How could that be the work of God? There's no room for honesty there, and communion needs honesty. He desires deep relationship with you. God doesn't mind you asking hard questions. It's usually men who mind, for it challenges their control."
