I Know You Got Soul

So, what IS soul?  Is it Curtis Mayfield’s soaring tenor?  Is it the tilt of your head, the cadence of your voice?  Is it a raucous, knowing laugh shared by others in the know?  An unspoken language, a fraternal handshake? 

It’s more than a piece of clothing or accessory.  It’s the rhythm, the soundtrack to our lives.  It’s awareness and pride--head held to the sky.  It’s native, it’s genuine.  A badge of honor.
    
This way cool necklace was made by a Brooklyn artisan and is available from Etsy.  It was my Christmas present to myself and I can’t wait to show it off!
