World weary though we may be – resilience is the ability to rise again and again – to reach out for hope, love and positivity. This extension towards hope, towards healing, towards compassion – is not to turn away from the pain and suffering of others, or to bend in the face of adversity– but a gesture to lift up all beings. I argue that if we take the eagles perch, the high-in-the-sky birds' eye view – we will observe that we are one family, one earth, one collective.

This piece celebrates the belief that under the one blue indigo sky that encircles our planet, our human family can only survive if we turn again and again to compassion, to empathy, to listening, to gratitude and love.

Again and again – returning. This is resilience.
