"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).

God is Seen Without Theophanies

"Similarly, God is, without special theophanies, seen everywhere by those who have lived for him. No doubt God wants us to see him. That is part of his nature as outpouring love. Love always wants to be known.....

Seeing is no simple thing, of course. Often a great deal of knowledge, experience, imagination, patience, and receptivity are required."

(Dallas Willard. The Divine Conspiracy.)
