No. 297: Guest of Honor



Is Voice a Guest of Honor in your life?

If we could grasp
each Moment
ALL
of what Voice IS,

We would fling wide every door,
pull out all the stops,
and throw the biggest Par-TAY
in honor
of this Beautiful Guest

(which in fact *shhhhh* is the Beauty of Who We Are--
but don't tell--
or the Par-TAY won't be a surprise!)


THIS is Life.  THIS is Love.  THIS is Opera Organically.

No. 296: "Namaste"



In the Opera Organically Community

We've begun to say "Namaste," (a form of greeting in parts of South Asia) to one another,

Meaning "The Light within me bows to the Light within You."


For Us, the meaning is even expanded:


"The Voice within ME bows to the Voice within YOU."


When we see solo singing as a unifying act,

rather than a skill which constantly separates us,

everyone is strengthened and encouraged.

Voice in ALL of us is honored,

and EVERYONE thrives.


Isn't this what we all want, deep down?


NAMASTE Friends, Singers, and Voice-FULL Ones!


Organically Yours,

Rebecca

No. 295: Getting to know YOU.



When was the last time you spent time with Voice?

Without judging

Without wanting

Without even delighting or despairing...

When have you just watched and listened and...noticed...

that IT

IS.

HERE...?

NOW...?

THIS is Life.  THIS is Love.  THIS is Opera Organically.
