Dads 70th birthday

I don’t think I really listened to Leonard Cohen before that. I knew my dad did.

Then yesterday or the day before there was an article on psychology.com, my go-to when I’m feeling fragile. To get some perspectives outside my brain. The first article was about Leonard Cohen:

‘Leonard Cohen’s “Anthem” contains that famous line: “There is a crack in everything / That’s how the light gets in.”’
