A Surprise, But a Good One

Kate and I were sitting in the family room before leaving for lunch. As usual, music was playing on my audio system. This time it was a John Galway album. She said, “I love that song.” I said, “I do too, but I can’t remember the name.” She said, “Beauty and the Beast.” I said, “You’re right. I’m surprised you could remember that.” She laughed and said, “I am too.”

It has been many years since she saw the musical, and this is not an album I have played a lot. I am amazed she could recall the name. As she sometimes says, “Don’t count me out yet.”

It’s another reminder of the power of music.
