This photo was taken by a Turkish photographer when a goat gave birth to a baby on an icy mountain. To save the life of the goat and the baby, a village girl (shepherdess) carried the mother on her shoulder and the girl's dog saved the newborn goat by carrying her too. This photo is a living example of humanity.

The word ‘fast’ is not always about speed, have you ever heard of it?
Fast doesn’t always mean quick or quickly. Let’s take a precise look at the collocation “hold fast”.
If you hold something fast, you hold it tightly and firmly. If something is stuck fast, it is stuck very firmly and cannot move.
“She was walking along the ferry's deck, holding fast to the handrail.”
Here is an example of how we can use it in a professional setting. A person can hold fast to an idea that may mean that he/she continues to believe in or adheres to an idea or a principle.
“An old squad holds fast basic OOP principles such as encapsulation, inheritance, polymorphism, and abstraction.”
