"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).

To Enjoy Growth

To come to enjoy what you have not 
you must go by a way in which you enjoy not. 
To come to the knowledge you have not 
you must go by a way in which you know not. 
To come to the possession what you have not 
you must go buy a way in which you possess not. 
To come to be what you are not 
you must go by a way in which you are not 

- John of the Cross. Spanish Mystic
