Unsurprisingly, (Cohn 2009) shows that people who have more resilience are actually more happy, and those who endure hardship with greater inner elasticity often find themselves more capable of joy. Happiness, then, is not only the absence of adversity, but a way of inhabiting it differently. The happier person is often the one who can still discover play within difficulty, who can cast a gentler light over misfortune, and who, without denying suffering, learns to transform it into meaning, beauty, and so. #Modus Vivendi
