Option A is not available. So let's kick the hell out of option B. We are not born with a fixed amount of resilience. It is a muscle, and that means we can build it. We find our resilience when we lean into the people who care about us. We build resilience when we find gratitude in the middle of pain. You are not born knowing how to deal with grief. No one is. But you can learn. You can grow. You can find meaning even when it seems impossible.

Traducao (Portugues)

A opção A não está disponível. Então vamos arrasar na opção B. Não nascemos com uma quantidade fixa de resiliência. É um músculo, e isso significa que podemos fortalecê-lo. Encontramos nossa resiliência quando nos apoiamos nas pessoas que se importam conosco. Construímos resiliência quando encontramos gratidão no meio da dor. Você não nasce sabendo lidar com a dor. Ninguém nasce. Mas você pode aprender. Pode crescer. Pode encontrar significado mesmo quando parece impossível.
