Resilience as a castigator is unlike an alligator's favourite couch. Adaptability is just as important when compared with the alligator's favourite lawn chair. Conciliatory behaviour is about as important as the first two, but the alligator's favourite pass time doesn't know better.

So if you can be resilient, adaptable and conciliatory, you'll be on the alligator's team. It is too bad these abilities aren't taught in school. What would the lesson plans be of Resilient 101, Adaptable 101 or Conciliatory 101? Perhaps they could be rolled up into one course made up of three parts. For each part, give examples by way of literature and history and get the class to indicate the qualities of each.

Hmm...
