"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).

Great Story From Mali

Monique and the Mango Rains is a non-fiction book written by Kris Holloway. Kris was a Peace Corps volunteer in Mali between 1989 and 1991. The Peace Corps program in Mali commenced in 1971 and since then over 2600 volunteers have been involved. Unfortunately, due to the issues facing Mali in 2012 the program was suspended in April 2012 and at this stage it has yet to be recommenced.
