Resilience

Today I am thankful for Verny's resilience. It didn't happen often, but whenever she got embarrassed or mad or just uncomfortable in any way, she would go off by herself and cry a little. Five minutes later, she'd coming back skipping and smiling, as if nothing had happened at all! Verny took the time out to acknowledge her feelings, determine how she felt about them, and find some answer to make her realize that it wasn't worth bringing the rest of her day down. To me, this is true resilience, to confront those moments without hesitation, settle it right away, and then move on to better things. I found this inspiring about Verny, and I've always looked up to and tried my best to follow in those footsteps.
