In this column we explore how we confront, or in many cases try to avoid dealing with, the hard times. We examine, in detail, the skills and attitudes that build and maintain our resilience, our ability to bounce back from misfortune and tragedy. We do this through storytelling, through listening to others, and through listening to ourselves.
