Permanence, perseverance and persistence in spite of all obstacles, discouragements, and impossibilities: It is this, that in all things distinguishes the strong soul from the weak. -Thomas Carlyle "Even when you have gone as far as you can, and everything hurts, and you are staring at the specter of self-doubt, you can…
