    I read an article about them recently. I admire how optimistic, full of devotion and happiness they are. No remorse, no hatred toward anyone, they are fully supportive and respectful towards one another. Everyone should follow their example!

    I doubt that all three photos are of the same people. The wall isn't weathered at all and if they are that old in the end, the first picture should not be iPhone quality.
