RE: The Power of Resilience (English subtitles)
Surviving to... perhaps, someday, live
This phrase has become my daily motto, I was surprised to find it.
Many colleagues are like in the steps of recovering from an addiction, taking one day at a time and solving things step by step, trying to get to the next day without fainting.
For several it has been hard, because we no longer plan for the long term, even a person who is close to me simply said that I was surviving by stubbornness but did not think I could see the end of this disaster, I simply accepted that I would do my best to stay alive , but that this reality was killing him drop by drop and he didn't see it resolved before he reached the dead line...
Oh, that what you tell is a meaningful and inspiring experience. It's about the importance of the little things, all those little efforts and gestures that prevent our life from entering to worst conditions.
I always say to my family, if things are bad, why would we act in a way that would make them even worse?
I'm happy to notice that many of my reflections portray your own views and experiences.
There is a phrase that he told me once and a student who left me thinking "Keep alive is a show of strength" I found it interesting and asked him who it was, his answer was Ezra Scarlet, I was surprised later when I knew who that name corresponded to, but I still thought it was a good quote.
I agree. And sometimes to remain alive is the only thing we can do, our only choice.
