2 decades and 7 years are gone after Tutsi Genocide happened in Rwanda. The very horrible tragedy!

We Rwandans were never held back by our history!
We moved on!
We remember, unite and renew!


We see the light after the darkness!

This Friday, I had a session about resilience and stress management.

But let me talk about resilience!

Resilience is the ability to withstand adversity and bounce back from difficult life events.

Good definition, isn’t it? It’s about keeping your head up in hardship.

Frankly, we all face hardship but few of us withstand.
Being resilient doesn’t mean that a person won’t experience difficulties, it simply means that a person stays strong and calm in situation.

Those people who are resilient are adaptable, optimistic and pragmatic.

You can become a resilient too by building your connection (relationship), fostering your wellness, finding your purpose and seeking for help.

You can be resilient in stressful situations and other hardships.
It’s not that is, is it? But it helps of course, it makes you move on and continue living your life instead of being held back by your past.

Losing your husband/wife, children, brothers, sisters, parents, entire family and still can be able to forgive the person who took them from you is not easy thing to manage.
Saying that that person is resilient isn’t enough, He/She is a hero, no maybe other term.


It wasn’t imaginable that people will live as they live today in Rwanda after what happened.

But with their strongest hearts, they moved on.
They forgave their neighbors who slaughtered their families and accepted to live with them again in peace.
It’s not resilience science they studied, it’s just humanity!

What other example could be better than those people?
You can overcome any hardship as Rwandans did!

Twibuke twiyubaka!
