Survivors are all around us. They are the every day people we meet, dealing with things we can only imagine. If only we stopped to ask them, they might tell us their story.
At Miss Angie’s Place you are invited to share your story. That is what the Survivor Series is all about. Coming together as human beings to listen to the survival story of one of our peers. We all struggle with things and we all share a common bond; we are human and we need each other to live our happiest fullest lives.
