    To Sam and Susie, Blaine and Em, Luke and Liv:

    Time with you makes me a more resilient man!

    He has made his people strong.

    PSALM 148:14 NLT

    Contents
    Guide

    C amels have an Achilles heel; this is where we will begin.

    But their vulnerability is hidden by their legendary resilience: these famous ships of the desert have been crossing dune seas since before the time of Abraham.

    The stamina and strength of camels is truly impressivethey can carry heavy loads across leagues of burning desert sand, going without water for weeks while their human companions die of thirst. But the treacherous thing about camels is that they will walk a thousand miles with seemingly endless endurance, giving you little indication they are about to collapse. Then it just happens. As the Alchemist said to Santiago,

    Camels are traitorous: they walk thousands of paces and never seem to tire. Then suddenly, they kneel and die. But horses tire bit by bit. You always know how much you can ask of them, and when it is that they are about to die.

    Human souls hide an Achilles heel too.

    We have an astonishing capacity to rally in the face of calamity and duress. We rally and rally, and then one day we discover theres nothing left. Our soul simply says, Im done; I dont want to do this anymore, as we collapse into discouragement, depression, or just blankness of soul.

    You dont want to push your soul to that point.

    But everything about the hour we are living in is pushing our souls to that very point. Some folks are nearly there.

    We entered the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020 worn out by the madness of modern life. Now, this isnt a book about the pandemic, though when history tells our story COVID-19 will be our generations World War IIthe global catastrophe we lived through. What began in 2020 was a shared experience of global trauma, and trauma takes a tollthe long experience of losses great and small, all the high-volume tension around masks, quarantines, vaccines, school closures, and on and on the list goes. Journalist Ed Yong won the 2021 Pulitzer Prize for Explanatory Reporting for his coverage of the pandemic. Heres what he found:

    Millions have endured a year of grief, anxiety, isolation, and rolling trauma. Some will recover uneventfully, but for others, the quiet moments after adrenaline fades and normalcy resumes may be unexpectedly punishing. When they finally get a chance to exhale, their breaths may emerge as sighs. People put their heads down and do what they have to do, but suddenly, when theres an opening, all these feelings come up, Laura van Dernoot Lipsky, the founder and director of the Trauma Stewardship Institute, told me.... As hard as the initial trauma is, she said, its the aftermath that destroys people.

    Right now were in a sort of global denial about the actual cost of these hard years (which are not over). We just want to get past it all, so were currently trying to comfort ourselves with some sense of recovery and relief. But folks, we havent yet paid the psychological bill for all weve been through. We would never tell a survivor of abuse that the trauma must be over now that the abuse has stopped. And yet that mentality is at play in our collective denial of the trauma weve been through.
