Singing Soul Strong

Billie Holiday said The artist of soul never sings a song the same way twice, the artist never sings the same song twice. This sounds good and right to me, as soul artists and lovers, great optimally effective researchers and scientists and articulators, never live a day, a relationship, a poem, a dance, a sacred ritual or Orthodox Tradition the same way twice. As we learn to stay within our zones of mutual integrity, we can never go home again because we live through this fluid imagination place where life's articulating time flows a bubbling nuanced stream never sung as mere mechanical repeat, each moment learning now's new voice from soul's most resonant remembering strong-hearted space. Soul ever sings songs of streaming true-heart voice.
