The Light Gets In

Ring the bells that still can ring, 

  Forget your perfect offering.

There is a crack in everything,

   That’s how the light gets in.

~ Leonard Cohen

 

 

This Old House: Enveloped

DSC_0720With the advent of spring, a few weeks back, the flowers began blooming and the ivy began creeping.  As the season gains momentum, so does the ivy.  It’s fresh and bright . . . it’s waxy green and shiny . . . it’s a little bit sinister as it creeps toward the door.  We are being enveloped!

 

 

Happy Mother’s Day!

A flower for you!
A flower for you!

 

Because the distances we travel are not only through space, they are also through time.  Here’s a flower from my son, 10 years ago–still fresh and still heartfelt.  Happy Mother’s Day!
