Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack in everything
That’s how the light gets in
That’s how the light gets in
That’s how the light gets in.
~ Leonard Cohen, Anthem

Cracks and warts and stinkiness are part of the human perfection.

Perhaps that’s why I glow all the time – it’s not hot flashes – it’s all the damn cracks. Bless ’em.

Wow. Reading another book lately, and that same line by Cohen was referenced in the context – and I underlined the section, then took a snap with my phone camera so I could easily reference and share. And there you are, with the same thing. Wow, how did you do that?
