About this listen
In this episode, Karl Anthony reflects on two songs that pull in opposite directions, “A Change Is Gonna Come” by Sam Cooke and “Just the Way You Are” by Billy Joel.
One declares that change is inevitable. The other pleads for things to stay the same.
Through personal reflection, memories of church mothers, and lessons learned after a health scare, Karl explores the tension between growth and preservation. We change. The world changes. Technology changes. But memories don’t. Legacy doesn’t.
The episode includes a powerful sidewalk conversation with an 81-year-old mother who shares wisdom on faith, survival, health, gratitude, sharecropping, and preparing for uncertain times. Her words are steady, practical, and rooted in experience.
To top it off, woven into the episode is a harmonica tribute to honor the mothers who shaped us, performed by @mo.yella.p on Instagram.
Change will come. The question is how we prepare for it and what we choose to carry with us.
