A favorite songwriter of
mine, Leonard Cohen,
turned 80 on Sept 21, the
International Day of Peace;
and celebrated his milestone
by lighting up his first
cigarette in 30 years.
While I love his music,
I don't get it-this ain't
role model stuff but he
never cared about that in
the first place. Even if you
don't think you know his
music, you've heard it...
I understand his voice a
little better now...Oh, Leonard.....

All we have is a daily reprieve, contingent on the maintenance of our spiritual condition. We are never cured of addiction.
