Honorable Mention
The earth is resilient. Different cultures have different relationships to the earth in the west. Native Americans live in harmony with nature. Ranches try to change and control nature. Earth's resilience is being pushed to its limits.
Honorable Mention
Resilience is the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties, toughness. The earth is beautiful. The earth provides us with life and many other necessities in our daily lives. It also provides us with natural resources. Over the last few years Earth has had long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns mostly because of human activities. We all damaged the earth, but despite us the earth continues to have resilience…
Honorable Mention
This photo was taken in my final hour working on my Girl Scout Gold Award project, hanging up the sign with the library name. I began my project in September of 2019, however with many setbacks due to COVID-19, the project was only completed this February in 2022. Gold Award projects require 80 hours of work, and it took a lot of mental and physical strength to complete all the hours whilst surviving school, stress, and a global pandemic. This is modern teenage resilience.

I started playing tennis when I was 5 or 6 years old and started to play competitively when I was 8. I’ve won multiple tournaments. I’ve practiced for a long time and there are times where it doesn’t go well for me, but it only adds to the confidence I get when I accomplish a goal.
Honorable Mention
Old or new, maintained or not… Does it really matter if it just keeps standing and it works?

I chose this picture due to the leading lines moving your focus down the beaten path to a tunnel and/or to a freeway. I also liked the not well maintained wall, rails, and the vandalized wood. I feel that this picture fits the theme of resilience due to the dirt path, vandalizing wood, and the wall.

These are my cats Roku and Kyoshi. Roku on the top had an eye problem. He had been to the vet multiple times before when we adopted Kyoshi. We had to clean everything that he may have touched so she wouldn’t get sick. Then after a little bit he got better, and Kyoshi and Roku met for the first time. After that, he was completely cured, and he and Kyoshi have been best friends since.
Honorable Mention
This represents that our eyes always see the good and the bad in life. As life goes on we see when the world
becomes sort of a storm for however long it takes, but then at the end of the day we see the good too. Our
eyes are witnesses to everything that goes on around us and even to us. Our eyes show our emotions when
we are sad, happy, annoyed, and so on. Every pair of eyes has a story behind them that not everyone
knows about. At the end of the day our eyes always tell the truth, and they have seen the hurt and the
happiness we all go through.
Honorable Mention
The pandemic was an unexpected event that shocked all of us, and affected us in many ways; It brought up many issues for people like small business owners, children and families. But even with all these complications, we all find a way to push through it all.

The photograph was taken in my home for an assignment that I had to do for school. I think that this image represents "Resilience" because when one feels like giving up and nothing more can be done, there is always a higher power to lean on. I think the image conveys a sense of strength and power.
Honorable Mention
Faith connects our present circumstances to what we wish our future to look like. Hope is similar - having hope represents our current struggles, and it pictures an image where better times are coming. Both faith and hope are necessary in order to recover from difficult situations and adapt to be brave and face any adversities that get in our way.
Honorable Mention
For my work, I decided I wanted to take photos at the Date Festival that is held in February. I decided this because it was a play that was still shown working their hardest even through the pandemic. They didn’t let the pandemic keep them closed and the people there were thrilled to be working and seeing other people. The images were of people doing the most mundane things in their lives, simply walking around the park or just a mass of people in crowds waiting with each other.
Honorable Mention
I took this photo outside on the street, where I saw the poster pasted onto a window of an old shop of some kind. I took a photo of this because racism has been a huge problem in our world for centuries. It’s been hard for people to fight back because they are often silenced, but recently more people have been trying to make a difference and help rebuild our society to be more equal and fair. This is one of the many posters I found spreading the Black Lives Matter movement, and a great example of resilience.
