The Resilience of Jazz

Resilience exists when a person uses mental processes and behaviors in promoting personal assets and protecting self from the potential negative effects of stressors. Jazz literally has the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties, a toughness that has been tested and proven through the ages; world wars, depression, recession, natural disasters, endemics, pandemics, and all-out pandemonium. Jazz remains constant and never loses it's elasticity......continuing to recover and return to it's pre-crisis status quickly. Jazz could possibly be the strongest element known to man. Earth, Wind, Fire, and Jazz on the Rocks with a Twist of Soul.
