"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).

Flat Church

"One of my favorite Picasso stories tells how he was accosted by a stranger in a railway station one day. “Why don’t you paint things as they really are?” the stranger asked. Picasso feigned not to understand what the gentleman meant. Whereupon the stranger pulled out of his wallet a photograph of his wife. “I mean,” he said, “like that. That’s how she is.” Picasso coughed softly and said, “She is rather small, isn’t she? And somewhat flat?”
