Persistence

her persistence brought the fact that she was obsessed to the mind of her dearest compadres & they watched as with each passing day the object of her obsession became more & more all that she would live to be--- while this scared them they remembered the her that existed prior to this obsession & remembered how lost & how depressed she seemed to walk in the world--- now, she was determined to get somewhere, she was determined to meet someone, she was determined to become something else which might prove to get her through, but it all weighed upon the success of her persistence, the meeting of her obsession & if her strength came from the process of that challenge, they feared what would happen afterward, if she attained her goal.
