THE QUIET COST
Resilience in Silence

“Some prices you don’t pay in money. You pay in
silence, time, and the weight you carry home.”

The cost isn’t loud.
It doesn’t show up on payslips or rosters.
It shows up in the silence — in the weight between shifts,
in the eyes that stay open long after the lights go out.

You don’t talk about it, but you feel it.
That quiet ache that builds discipline, that shapes patience.
The kind of strength no one claps for, but everyone relies on.

This is where resilience is reborn.
Where you learn that recovery isn’t weakness — it’s wisdom.
And where the story of the man behind the uniform
begins to speak for itself.

“Not every wound needs explaining.
Not every bruise can be seen.
Some costs are carried — not counted”.
