Survival Stories
Everyone loves survival stories. We all love to hear or read about people who beat the odds, overcome life’s obstacles and triumph over personal tragedy.
We think, there but for the grace of God go I, and find it easier to put our own troubles into perspective after seeing how someone else survived troubles much worse than our own. We gain strength to face our own obstacles after being inspired by other people’s stories.
Today I discovered a new blog that celebrates Squidoo lenses that tell personal stories of survival. It is called Squidoo Survivors and written by one of my favorite Squidoo lensmasters, boshemia, aka Ayngel Overson.
Ayngel’s writing style reminds me of the president Theodore Roosevelt quote “Speak softly and carry a big stick,” because her softly spoken, empathetic words, sneak up to you and knock you out.
