I was at the Elder's performance of the musical Annie Jr., an abridged version of the Broadway musical. I was taken back to my childhood, when I had seen Annie, an outgrowth of my school having done it as part of a musical when I was in the Lower School.
Hearing the lead actress singing "Maybe" put tears in my eyes, for two reasons - one was because of what the song stands for - the hope that life is better somewhere else, and more bitterly, the memory of a point in my life when a couple of things inside me had not yet died.
