Day 171 - Resilience is Earned

Resilience is a highly admired trait in society, but it is often misunderstood and misrepresented. While many people claim to be resilient, true resilience is earned through profound adversity. All humans have the inherent capacity to be resilient, but it is often unacknowledged in modern society. The story of Greg Gadsden, a former colonel who overcame severe injuries, exemplifies true resilience. Resilience cannot be manufactured or claimed for oneself, but individuals can choose to surround themselves with resilient people and learn from their experiences.
