It’s just what one does. Going through the motions of life. Thriving is loving what you are doing and looking forward to the next moment. Thriving is when you want to share what you are doing with other people and include them in what you are doing. I have to decide whether I am surviving or thriving and work on it. It’s my responsibility. That is where my faith comes in. Read More6 Reply Linda6 months agoLindaThat reading the morning news is making me feel tired, and sick, and hopeless.
