IS HISTORY REPEATING ITSELF? Survival of the Fittest — A Family Affair
By definition, survival is the state or fact of continuing to live or exist, typically in spite of an accident, ordeal, or difficult circumstances. The ways and means by which we live are relevant to every member of our society, community, or family to include adults and children alike.
