Thriving Beyond Surviving
I have been through the fire and the storm
But I did not let them break my spirit or my form
I have faced the challenges and the pain
But I did not let them stop me from growing or gaining

I am still thriving beyond surviving
I am still living beyond existing
I am still dreaming beyond hoping
I am still loving beyond caring

I have learned from the mistakes and the failures
But I did not let them define my worth or my future
I have overcome the fears and the doubts
But I did not let them limit my potential or my output

I am still thriving beyond surviving
I am still living beyond existing
I am still dreaming beyond hoping
I am still loving beyond caring

I have found the joy and the peace
But I did not let them make me complacent or lazy
I have discovered the purpose and the meaning
But I did not let them make me arrogant or greedy

I am still thriving beyond surviving
I am still living beyond existing
I am still dreaming beyond hoping
I am still loving beyond caring

I am still thriving, living, dreaming, loving
Beyond surviving, existing, hoping, caring
