Inspired by Kathy Leo, "On the Breath of Song: The Practice of Bedside Singing for the Dying."

I believe great political and psychological and spiritual and natural transitions are places of deep learning opportunity, with concomitant risk; responsible for co-opportunities with authority for absorbing and repulsing degenerative competing risks. These great transitions, like weddings and births and deaths and elections and changes from winter toward summer are yin-death of one thing into yang-birth of another, a commencement into regenerate opportunity, decomposing multilateral historical risks. This great transitioning political season wheel turns through psychological reasons, trusts and distrusts, circling revolutionary around creolic nature-spirit stories of creation with concomitant decomposition, Yang opportunity with multilateral Yin risks of devolution reversion co-arising. Within this Tao wheel of regenerativity are great transitioning edges, where evolutionary change emerges more revolutionary noticed. Great transitional edges are landscapes wherein climate double-boundaries between death and embryonic birth grow transparently thin and bilaterally spacetime translucent.
