"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).

Hysterical Christians

"There are Christians who have hysterical reactions, as if the world would have slipped out of God's hands.... But we believe in history; the world is not a roll of the dice going  toward chaos.....
Take away the sadness from our faces. We are not in a game of chance...."

- Father Luis Espinal. Assassinated March 22, 1980 in La Paz, Bolivia, by paramilitairy forces. One of his last writings.
