FLEXIBILITY

And on the other hand - no one knows flexible like our generations.   Just think about what we have adjusted to within our lifetimes – from giant black and white tv’s and vinyl records to i-pads and MP3 players … check it outl   
                  
Cultural anthropologists in years to come will marvel at the ability of our minds to adjust – twist and turn with each new wave of social, cultural and technical change! 
Culture shock?  Not us – we are the masters of flexibility!  

And speaking of the magic of our times, we were privileged to hear the music of Dave Brubeck who died yesterday morning one day short of his 92 birthday. 

His music, his constant innovations, his stand against segregation, all made him a remarkable human and an icon of our times. 

During the 7 decades of his career, this ambassador of jazz, who kept performing into his 90th year, was truly a master of flexibility in our changing times!
