:02:02
...entirely.
:02:04
She believed that all problems could
be solved by listening to Carly Simon.
:02:09
Greatest Hits.
:02:11
Side two. Hurry.
:02:20
Something about her voice,
or her lyrics, or her music...
:02:24
...helped Mom clear the chaos...
:02:26
...especially after a fight with Dad.
:02:30
Or when he left us for good.
:02:35
People said Mom was better off.
:02:37
They said she was lucky.
But she believed....
:02:42
Luck is when preparation
meets opportunity.
:02:45
You gotta prepare
for the life you want.
:02:48
And though I knew I wanted
a career in broadcast journalism...
:02:51
...it took a little Carly
and a lot of time...
:02:54
...to find the person
I most wanted to work with.
:02:56
-She is smart and she is learning.
-Diane Sawyer.
:02:59
-Chic, smart, intelligent--
-And she married well.
:03:02
Good point.
:03:05
-She's a little beige.
-No, no, she's taupe.
:03:08
Taupe is never beige.
Taupe's classic. Confident.
:03:12
-lt says, "I'm elegant."
-"And I don't need color to prove it."
:03:15
There you go.
I wanna work with her one day.
:03:18
-You should work with her.
-I will work with her.
:03:21
With my career decided,
I left for college...
:03:25
...hopeful I would meet someone
I could be certain of.
:03:27
-Phillip.
-Bruce.
:03:29
-Jeremy.
-Noah.
:03:30
-Trotsky.
-Frank.
:03:31
-Bean.
-Bean? As in, "How have you...?"
:03:34
Bean. Yeah.
:03:35
-I really, really like him, Mom.
-You do?
:03:38
Yeah, I do. I think I do. Maybe.
:03:41
Don't over-commit yourself
unless you are absolutely certain.
:03:45
You've gotta prepare
for the life you want.
:03:48
Again, I turned to Carly.
