She stopped and looked at him. “Mackenzie, I have no favorites; I am just especially fond of him.”“You seem to be especially fond of a lot of people,”Mack observed with a suspicious look. “Are there any who you are not especially fond of?”She lifted her head and rolled her eyes as if she were mentally going through the catalog of every being ever created. “Nope, I haven’t been able to find any. Guess that’s jes’ the way I is.”

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).
