Persistence is my best friend

Can we keep changing and yet be persistent on an issue?

In a world that is so unpredictable and in perpetual motion does it really do any good?

I came across a war-torn family and 51 other people who have never met in person.They taught me about taking things as they are, imagining what they can be and acting accordingly.
