"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).

Don't Die Bitter - Is The Religious Imperative

"As we age we need to forgive -forgive those who hurt us, forgive others for our own mistakes, forgive life for having been unfair, and then forgive God for seemingly not having protected us - all of this so that we do not die bitter and angry, which is perhaps the greatest religious imperative of all."

- Roland Rolheiser. Sacred Fire.
