The question is not how to survive, but how to thrive with passion, compassion, humour and style.” — Maya Angelou

Thriving is much different than just surviving because they offer entirely different experiences. If you only survive in life, you’ll feel like you’re barely getting by, and you won’t experience much joy. However, if you are thriving, you’ll feel like you live a fulfilling and meaningful life. - Author unknown
