"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).

Give Me Someone To Blame. ...

"For crying out loud, would someone just tell me who to hate and pin the world’s problems on? People who previously fit into my “l’m—excused— from—loving—you box” were not cooperating very nicely... Sure, there are greedy wealthy people, folks who abuse the system, and wackos who want to see it all go up in flames, but mostly I found my stereotypes didn’t accurately describe the ordinary people I knew. It just didn’t pay to let others do my thinking for me."
(Jim Palmer. Divine Nobodies : Shedding Religion To Find God - And the unlikely people who help you.) "
