Tonite I was able to finish watching Joni Mitchell: Woman of Heart and Mind. I've never known much about Joni Mitchell, and I'm not sure what caused me to add this to my netflix queue, but I'm glad I did.
Some things I learned about Joni that were interesting:
The wide range of artistic expression she is known for (various types of music--folk, jazz, rock, world, etc., plus a painter and a poet)
The way she blazed her own unique trail with her sound and style
The thing that was most inspirational to me about this story was the way she was willing to put raw honesty out in public. I feel like that is an area I would like to grow in.
You can watch this on Instant Play on Netflix.
For your listening pleasure, here is my favorite Joni Mitchell song, Both Sides Now. It's a painfully beautiful song. (I just realized that this is the song that plays in my favorite scene in the movie Life as a House. Love it!)
**You can read the lyrics to this song here.

Oh, that is so beautiful. My mom had a book of contemporary songs back in the late 60s and this was the first song I learned to play out of that book. I totally do not remember this song being in Life as a House, but I'm sure it made the movie even more fabulous than it was. Loved that movie. Thanks for posting this song. It is just really beautiful.
