In this tender and emotionally grounded episode of Good Vinyl Mornings, PL Sweets drops the needle on “Rainy Days and Mondays” by The Carpenters, a song that reminds us it’s okay not to be okay. Through Karen Carpenter’s hauntingly pure voice and Richard’s delicate piano lines, we’re invited into a quiet space where sadness isn’t something to escape—but something to feel.PL opens the conversation around grief—not only the loss of loved ones, but the everyday losses we rarely honor: lost dreams, missed chances, changing seasons of life, and parts of ourselves we’ve had to let go. Grief isn’t a detour on the road to healing; it is part of the journey. Just like the rain that falls to cleanse the air, grief washes through us to make room for new growth.The Carpenters didn’t just sing about melancholy; they gave it melody. Their sound reminds us that vulnerability isn’t weakness—it’s truth with a soundtrack. PL unpacks how this song became an anthem for anyone silently struggling, teaching that it’s okay to slow down, cry, and find peace in the pause. Because when we take time to grieve, we also take time to heal.There’s power in sitting still with your emotions, in allowing your soul to exhale. And when the clouds finally part, you discover that even the rain had purpose—it softened the ground for something new to bloom.By the end of this reflective session, PL reminds us: grieving doesn’t mean you’re broken—it means you cared deeply. And sometimes, the most spiritual act you can offer yourself is grace.🎧 Catch the Vibe: “Rainy Days and Mondays” – The CarpentersPL Sweets "Love Love Love" featuring Leroy Burgess & Dungeon JonesIf you would like to support us we would appreciate it.
