This reminds me of a radio show out of Baltimore a long time ago that I used to listen to. It came from an Episcopal church in downtown. I liked what the pastor said, and even drove to Baltimore one Sunday just to see what he was like. The church "board" outside said the sermon was going to be about "Souls Without Goals". I thought it would be putting such souls down, how everybody should have life goals. The usual church stuff. But no, the minister said he was one of those who had never had big impressive goals! He was a non-conformist, and that is what had appealed to me listening to him on the radio. Really an intelligent and thoughtful man.

Maybe nothing to do with you; it just came to mind.
