Miyazaki said that he was retiring with “The Wind Rises” a decade ago. Seeing “The Boy and the Heron” tonight with my youngest reminded me not only how much I enjoy and appreciate this master’s work, but that you’re never too old for a comeback. 💯

Resilience isn’t a trait. It’s a skill. Resilience isn’t something you’re born with: it’s something you learn, practice, and improve. Our connections help us be more resilient when we run into major challenges in our lives. Resilience is a muscle. Developing it is a workout.
