It’s hard to see that silver lining, but it is there, and when the struggles subside, one is filled with gratitude.

With good legal support and the passing of time, one begins to feel grateful for finally making it to the other side. There is an understanding that the future is not just bearable, but instead, an opportunity to grow and transcend the pain of the past. There are 3 stages of gratitude.

1. RECOGNITION
   The first step is recognizing that you are going to be okay. It is realizing that in spite of your struggles, that you still have a life worth living. You begin to see the glass as half full rather than half empty and you understand that in many ways you are in a better position than you once thought. You recognize that your situation could be worse, that you have friends and family that care about and love you.
2. ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
   The second stage of gratitude is acknowledgment. Not only can you see the light at the end of the tunnel; you feel the light at the end of the tunnel. You can now acknowledge that your life has finally turned that corner. This allows you to feel hope. It gives you energy to take steps you may have been too fearful or too tired to take before.
3. APPRECIATION
   By the third stage, you begin to appreciate people in your life who have been there for you, the sense of renewed strength you have, and the fact that you have made a difficult decision and survived.
