The sun sets on another day…
I end up talking about resilience a lot. Resilience is defined as “the capability of a strained body to recover its size and shape after deformation caused especially by compressive stress” and I speak of it in relation to computers and the ability of computers to snap back to the size necessary as needed. After talking to a person recently I once again feel people are one of the most resilient creatures there can be.
As a whole human’s in general face a lot. We do, however, have the ability to be resilient and to overcome. Some overcome a little, some overcome a lot, but in the end we can overcome nearly anything if we only try.
I have been told I tell stories well, and I tell a lot of stories. These stories are not always from me but are often inspired by the people who are out there, who tell me their story, and in the process change the way I see the world, if only a little. You see, our resilience is not just based on what we experience, but what we in turn can learn from others and experience. As our hearts and minds open, we have the ability to see far more than other animals, we can see situations, feel situations, and through them become more than we were before.
So as the sun sets on another day ask yourself for a moment, are you resilient, do you learn from others or do you have to learn through experience. Can you overcome, or are you overcome? Be that person that overcomes, and find a way to make every day an amazing one, no matter what.
Sleep sweet, love life, and overcome…
