What Is Resilience?

As defined by Merriam-Webster – Resilient is characterized or marked by resilience: such as (a): capable of withstanding shock without permanent deformation or rupture (b): tending to recover from or adjust easily to misfortune or change.

Every living being on the planet has experienced a pivotal moment in life that forces them to choose a path to follow as they approach the fork in the road. The beauty of being resilient doesn’t rest with the idea that one might be, rather it is a mark of strength, a trait that does not flow easily from generation to generation because at its root it is always a choice.
