"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).

I'm Too Swamped With My Own Problems To Have Time Pointing Out Yours.

"I'm tired of eating crow on the journey, and I just don't have the time and energy to waste anymore on reveling in what's wrong with everyone else. Behind this nice person, I'm screwed up enough myself to go a long time without ever needing to make sport over other people’s problems."
