Hi David, I understand you are celebrating a birthday, so felicitations! I am also interested in the concepts of resilience and vulnerability and as such look forward to your posts.

Hi David,
Thank you for your valued insights and future realizations regarding the concepts of resilience vs vulnerability.
It would seem that the resilience factor is much more favorable in an early environment of loving compassion as opposed to a dysfunctional upbringing yielding much greater vulnerability
The question would be the energy needed to change an already vulnerably mapped psyche to that of resilience. Are the neuropathways, as neuroplastic as they may be, capable of such change from vulnerability to resilience through conscious effort?
Blessings,
Jenn
