Resilience

This morning, I took pictures of a tree root on the edge of my sidewalk, scarred and bent and broken open from years of abuse. But still alive, supporting a giant of a tree, thriving despite adversity. Resilience. (The pictures didn't turn out very well).

Later I passed this river of moss, glistening in the crack in the pavement. The only living thing that wasn't planted and planned around there. Another reminder of resilience. And hope.

Resilience. Maybe I even have some of it!
