LESSONS FROM ‘HIGH SCHOOL DIARY’ THROWBACK

We woke up to another social media hash tag(#HighScholDiaries) on the experiences people had in their respective High Schools, recounting amazing stories, rib cracking encounters, shocking past life, thresholds and endless descriptive happenings. To whichever school that started this, bravo! It isn’t bad to throw a light, once a while, to the past and connect to the present building of your life. Ebenezer!
