This year my goal is the THRIVE...not just cope. Research into well being/happiness and "the good life" suggests that goals provide the structure and the framework which help create meaning into all of our lives The first couple of years following the death of my husband I felt like I "limped thru", now limping is not enough...I am not sprinting, but at least the limping has turned into a steady jog.
