Leonard Cohen 3

Another beautiful photo of Leeonard Cohen (Note 3). 

The photo's caption says it all: "A generous reminder that we must aim for 'a revelation in the heart rather than a confrontation or a call-to-arms or a defense'" (Brainpickings, 2014; Note 2).

This text would seem to overlap nicely with these by now famous stanzas from his song "Anthem" (Note 3):

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

Lars T Soeftestad
