A Brief Remembrance from Doug Draper

Has it really already been 10 years since the end of Leonard Cohen’s amazing journey on this planet?
If you have his recordings and continue to play them, it is almost as if he never left us on this day 10 years ago, on November 7th, 2016 at age 82.
His many songs and all those lyrics that gave them so much for us to think about in our own lives are just as moving now as they were when he first wrote and recorded them.
Here is one, written and recorded by Leonard Cohen in 1992, that immediately comes to mind for me as we continue to live through what has been going on south of the Canada-U.S. border.
