"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).

When It's Just Talk.....

"I’ve learned from personal experience that believing Jesus’ message in theory makes you a good Christian, but fleshing out and living the implications of his message can get you in a lot of trouble. Love is the most transformational force on earth, but judging and condemning is so much easier. There’s a lot of resistance to love and peace in the world, even from Christians. If you don’t believe me, start hanging out with people in that “really bad” group, and criticism from the Christians will find you." (Jim Palmer. Wide Open Spaces)
