"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).

Puritan Ethic That Forces Me to Judge Everything.....

"I am crippled and restricted in South America by that puritan ethic that forces me to judge everything as either good or bad, that makes me uneasy with prolonged leisure or guiltless excesses, with procrastination and fatalism. I am nervous around emotion and unplanned joy."

(Moritz Thomsen. The Farm On The River of Emeralds)
