Pieces of Us is about real people sharing real stories. We see many people; yet, we rarely see the stories that they carry with them. Think about how many people we encounter in our lives: family members, friends, colleagues, the random person you encounter at the grocery store, the lonely man sitting on the bench in the park, or the barista at your local coffee shop. Every person you meet has an untold story. Some of these stories are heart wrenching; some fill us with joy; while others make us laugh uncontrollably. These narratives are little pieces that make us who we are. Many of these stories are not necessarily unique, but they are uniquely our own. Sharing these stories help us understand and connect with each other on a deeper level and in turn we feel less alone.
Pieces of Us provides a platform for people to share pieces of their untold stories.
