Today was my birthday! And I got to share it with a little guy (and his family) born at 0632 this morning. 8lbs of love!

I have so many good things in my life right now and am happier than I've been in a long, long time.

But I'd be less than truthful if I didn't admit there's a little crack in me, not a hole now, but a crack that isn't filled.

But as Leonard Cohen says:

Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in.

So the light will fill that space and life goes on. We're imperfect beings, a mix of good and bad, happy and sad, black and white, light and dark.

We get to choose what we bring forward.
Some days it's not easy but we have a choice.

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do.
I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering.
