The Crack

"The Crack" Photo of architectural ornamentation outside of a church just N. of Hollywood Blvd. Thanks to the anonymous guest who sent the following perfect quote from one of my favorite songwriters: "Ring the bells that still can ring Forget your perfect offering There's a crack in everything That's how the light gets in" --Leonard Cohen

Remarkable visual reminder that our strive for perfection oftentimes blinds us from appreciating a great big crack. "Ring the bells that still can ring Forget your perfect offering There's a crack in everything That's how the light gets in" --Leonard Cohen
