Kindness and Beautiful

"I just sort of try to be a good person; try to write music that lifts people and makes me feel good to sing."
~ Carole King

A few months ago, I saw Beautiful: The Carole King Musical when I was in another city on business.  A colleague invited me as part of a women's event.  I loved the show because as the promotional materials accurately claim, Carole King wrote "the soundtrack to a generation."  Her songs immediately took me back to certain moments, a lifetime ago that the music brought much closer. 

I somehow missed that the musical was playing in the county just north of where I live, but my mother shared that she and a friend were going to see it.  I told her how much I would love to see the show again.  Unfortunately, my mother was going on the next-to-last day and there was no way I could go.  But after they went to the show, I found a CD with the musical soundtrack on my doorstep.  Thanks, Mom.
