"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).

Transformed By What I Didn't Say.

"Often we preachers are crestfallen when “our most ‘telling’ remarks fall flat,” as Simon Tugwell notes, “and our most unrehearsed and immature thoughts bear fruit. People’s lives are changed by casual sayings they misunderstand or mishear.”

(Brennan Manning. Ruthless Trust )
