"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).

Listening to Others Faith Story

"People were interested in whether I could name the three men in the fiery furnace and how quickly I could list the books of the New Testament, but I doubt that anyone wanted to know my wondering and stumbling thoughts of Faith. (As I write these words, all I want to do right now is go straight home and invite my three young Sons to tell me about their stories of faith.)

Additionally, I don't think that children are all that much different from full-sized humans. I think all of us would love to tell our wandering spiritual musings and experiences, but who really cares enough to listen."
