Resilience

[stdsch40]

How about enduring, trying, actually doing things.
Do you remember in the summer sitting on your porch drinking a beer or lemonaid? And there were some flies that came around and bothered you? Well how resilient were you to not let them bother you? Or did each one cause you discomfort and irritate you? You could have ignored them but you they let them irritate you, each and every one of them. If that happened then you are not a resilient person, and need to calm yourself down.

WHAT the heck brought THAT on?

On the other hand, I consider myself resilient by being able to live in a frozen hell where it's 25 below tonight!

An NO flies, or mosquitoes, for that matter!

If every fly, mosquito, tic, wasp, grasshopper, ant, knat, spider, cold day, hot day, weed, squirrel, chipmunk, pidgeion, racoon, worm, cloudy day, rainy day, bothers you then you don't stand a chance in this life. Give up. Otherwise just try to endure and see what happens.

Are you barfing? Then please go out side, its only -35C, you'll be fine. I'll lock the door behind you. Going to bed now.

Resilience: The measure of time I had to get my act together in front of the old man the morning after being out late in the sauce!

Might also be the measure of time until you check with the pharmacist on a prescription!

I built a screened porch.

Ingenuity - the ability to solve one’s problems.

One mosquito is not a problem. A million of the @#$@*& things is another story.

More smoke you're right on that. Millions in the field when spraying corn with no cab and beans.

If every old man grousing about every little thing bothers you then you don't stand a chance in this life. Give up.
