Resiliency

The fancy way idiots say resilience. Resilience means the ability to recover or bounce back from a hardship. Resiliency is not a word (if you were betting).
Despite losing the bet as to whether resiliency is a word, I was impressed with her resiliency in immediately betting me again as to whether orientate is a word.

Resilience

(1.) Strength in the face of overwhelming odds. A byproduct of the belief that there is something better out there. Something worth hoping for...in this life or the next.

(2.) The ability to consider the motivations of other people, and not just the content of what they say or do (good or bad).
(1). Many people who lack resilience are not "weak". They are just lost. I know what it is to be lost.

(2). When insulted or flattered, many people get lost in their self-consciousness or only consider the content of what is said. Considering why people speak and act the way they do is far more important and shields you from a lot of harm and unwise decisions. This creates a form of resilience.
