I recently stumbled upon a most excellent album: Leonard Cohen Live in London. I am always grateful when I find music that sustains me, that supports me in life and in my work. Here's one of the songs sustaining me:The birds they sang
At break of day
Start again
I hear them say
Don't dwell on what has passed away
Or what has yet to be.
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.
-- Leonard Cohen, Anthem
I need reminding that it doesn't matter if I didn't write or post yesterday (or even for several months) but rather that I am posting today. I need reminding that "it" doesn't have to be perfect, that I don't have to be perfect to be out in the world providing something worthwhile.
What music keeps you sustained?
