Real and alive. And held.

“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

The older I get, the more I stand in genuine wonder at the beauty in the old and worn.

.

Today I’ve mourned my own old and worn places. Just have sat with God and cried. And he reminds me of how he is, of his ways: that old + worn, with him, = tender + real + alive. And held.
