"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 Expect Best Friends Everywhere?

"I think I’m finally accepting that you can’t have a best friend everywhere you go. Maybe some special, extroverted, grace-filled person can – but I can’t. “Clicking” is such a mysterious, unpredictable phenomenon. A whole lot of people have been nice to us in Canada, people that we now consider friends, but only one really clickable couple has given us the space to just freaking relax when we hang out. And I think that average is about as good as it gets.

It’s about finding the right people. It just works or it doesn’t. It’s not right or wrong. It just is." (Jessica Bowman)
