Tuesday Breakthrough: Lake Michigan – Light in Spite of It All

 

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

 

 “Anthem” by Leonard Cohen

    serene and urban
    seem together
    lake front
    calm to storms
    centers

    I remember for me when I felt gloomy idealized there was always a spark of light that does ignite and thenvits my shadow that is not seen. <3

    Oh I love this one…how it shows the sun peeking between the dark clouds. Thanks for sharing Cher!

      Thanks so much, Michelle! It was so interesting because I thought oh, okay, here are the clouds rolling in. But then I saw a faint hint of light through the dark clouds. Leonard Cohen’s lyrics seemed to fit perfectly. Thank you, my dear! Cher xoxoxo
