I feel like I am thriving anyway, not just surviving because I am out of the bad marriage. I can thrive at least emotionally while I am surviving financially. The peace & happiness I feel being out of that bad marriage is actually thriving given the fact that I almost didn't even survive being in it before I was able to get out & be free from the #@[[ it felt like being in it.
Think when we focus our perspective on the good we have now, even if not perfect, that sense of thriving is felt not just surviving
