Summary/Abstract: This article is the outcome of projects implemented at the Daily Care Home at the Local Support Centre in Gdańsk, aimed at increasing socio-cultural activation and counteracting social exclusion. Among the activities, I especially concentrated on those based on a narrative biography, i.e., real life stories about key existential moments with particular emphasis on revitalizing moments, overcoming critical situations, but also on the lack of such experiences. Thus, the narrators conduct a critical reflection on building the ability to regenerate as well as on the sources of resilience, its potential, and ways of using it in the field of education. The article undertakes a reflection on possible activities of social pedagogy, in which I see the problems of resilience in relation to adult education, and it does not include, due to the complexity of the topic, analyzes of the heard stories.
