I had earlier mentioned I do not know if you can thrive and suffer at the same time and that I am looking into it. Found some nice reads online on this topic. Most of them though lead to faith and spirituality as a form of dealing with suffering and what if one is not spiritual in the religious sense. This lead me to look into different forms of spirituality as it can be defined beyond religion (Anbe sivam movie for the tamil movie buffs) https://spiritualitypedia.com/spirituality/beyond-religion-exploring-the-different-types-of-spirituality/). The humanistic and transpersonal spirituality makes more sense and more so the humanistic spirituality to my own values and identity. And to suffer and to thrive means one is resilient they say but then I have also recently read somewhere that resilience is not always a good thing. I think my understanding is resilience that leads to powering through is not a good thing, resilience that allows you to take breaks when needed is a good thing. so guess calling it a resilience with a small 'r' not a big 'R' .
