Why do we call some people 'strong'? Strong character, strong personality, strong edurance? I guess if we look inside their "resilience tool box" we will find compassion, gratitude, empathy, vulnerability that make them strong...

This day was different to the other ones. We built hats like someone who has done it for 20+ years. At first we thought that would be impossible, but step by step the hat looked better and better. The time we took to create it was a good opportunity to improve the hats and made me relieve my stress.

In my role as a teacher, I face the challenges and pressures related to teaching, relationships with colleagues, and interactions with families with balance and determination. Being resilient means being able to adapt to change, overcome critical moments, and continue to carry out one's educational role with effectiveness and passion. Today, I was put to the test in a different context, and at times, my resilience wavered. Thanks to Jordan's patience and collaboration, I was able to respond positively and tenaciously to the adversity I encountered. "One never stops learning."

In a little corner of paradise, surrounded by the quiet of nature and guided by Jordan’s care and knowledge, I rediscovered the beauty of waiting. I let time flow gently, welcoming each emotion with patience.

With my hands deep in the earth and my heart wide open, I became a craftsman of resilience. And when someone reached out and said, “Come on, you can do it,” I understood that the path is completed not alone, but thanks to those who walk beside you with kindness.

It seems that making a hat helps you practice resilience. It teaches you to be patient and keep going, even when the work is hard. Each step tests your focus and determination. In the end, you build not just a hat, but also your inner strength.

Today held a quiet wisdom beneath the sunlit waves. On a glowing beach surrounded by trees, we met Jordan—a man whose hands wove stories into coconut palm leaves. He showed us how to create a basket, but more importantly, he revealed the meaning of resilience.

While Jordan worked with ease, our own attempts were clumsy and slow. Each twist, each misstep pushed us to stop, take a breath, and start again. The basket wasn't just a craft—it was a metaphor. Life, like weaving, is rarely a straight line. Sometimes we follow patterns that falter, and we must unpick what we’ve done to find our way forward.

Mistakes made us pause. They urged reflection. And in those pauses, we found a rhythm—not of perfection, but of perseverance.

Giving up might have seemed tempting. Especially when the outcome was distant, hazy, hard to grasp. Yet we pressed on, guided not by certainty, but by grit. And slowly, the shape emerged—proof that even clumsy beginnings can lead to beauty, when met with patience and resolve.

In the end, the basket held more than leaves. It held the reminder that strength isn’t in never falling, but in rising each time we do.

Today during the session with Jordan I was on the verge of a nervous breakdown and giving it all up ....However, when I finally completed the task - with the help of patient smiling Jordan,I felt a kind of satisfaction...So never give up !!

Today I learned that it is sometimes better just to make things without too much thinking, you will succeed anyway :) Having accopmlished my weaving activity I felt happy and fairly satisfied. The eco hat made of natural materials is perfect for sunny days here on Guadeloupe.

Today, the Polish team worked together like a group with its own internal dynamic. Everyone went through a small crisis, and at some point, each of us wanted to give up. But we finished the work — and now we’re enjoying our awesome hats!

Today I learned how many sweat glands I really have. 😅

Anyway, it was very interesting to braid the hat with Jordan. The line between joy and frustration was particularly thin today, and through this seemingly small experience, I realized how important it is to keep going and not give up—especially when it would be so much easier to just let it go.

Seeing the finished result in the end made me happy and, in a way, even proud.

Today I have learned to trust. To trust the process, people and myself. I have become convinced that persistence and resilience to the situation and to myself need to be trained like muscles.

A seemingly impossible task was achieved by all students, due to the Calmness of teacher Jordan, and the persistence of all students.

Two values, of many others, that are important to become resilient.

Today's lesson in nature, in a peaceful and relaxed atmosphere, found a part of the hidden determination in me. A completely unknown process was transformed into a beautiful hat with the instructions of the knitting master Jordan. Sometimes you have to try things that seem impossible.

I had a wonderful time today.

With a bit of help from Jordan, I managed to create a fruit basket with my own hands. It seems like I am not the rubbish dump of history just yet.

Unfortunately, soon after, the originally green basket turned brown after I left it in our car in the sun while we were enjoying some amazing food. It made us realize how happy we were to be full.

As I do not dive, I cooled down my overheated body in the Caribbean Sea just by swimming, which was also the third pleasurable moment of the day.

Braiding the hats was a relaxing experience, and I realized that communication doesn’t always require language—just clear guidance. The atmosphere was calm and welcoming, which made it easy to unwind. Overall, it was a peaceful and enriching day.
