Share the Light
Earlier this week I was listening to the music of Leonard Cohen ( as I often do) , who has been one of my favorite artist for a very long, long time. I am sure many of you have heard of him. In his song “Anthem” there is a refrain which I think is very uplifting in difficult times.
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack in everything
That’s how the light gets in.
Refrain Anthem : Copyright Leonard Cohen 1982
Why don’t we all share the light as a sign of hope? We can do this by posting for instance an image of a candle, a lamp, the light of a lighthouse etc. etc. in a blog post with the heading: Share the Light . We could even take it a step further and light a candle in a window of our house every night for everyone to be seen.
Keep safe and stay healthy! ❤

It’s always better to light a candle than to curse the darkness . Every candle makes a difference! We all are part of this challenge to be brave and positive and encourage others. Thank you for your initiative
