On Resilience

“It is a unique fact of life that resilience is grounded in and based in our capacity to share with our loved ones and to share with one another what is happening in our lives to the fullest possible extent. But here’s the other part of that: The people who are hearing what we have to say do not not have to fix us, save us, rescue us, or provide some magical cure for whatever ails us, but the act of being heard is in itself something that empowers resilience.”—Rev. Ed Brock, December 10, 2023
