"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).

Few Words

"... so Laconian oratory has no rind...
for example, what the Lacedæmonians said to Philip, "[Remember] Dionysius at Corinth."  And again, when Philip wrote to them, "If I invade Laconia, I will drive you all out of house and home," they only wrote back, "If."

- Plutarch. Morals. 1st Century Greek Philosopher
