Lessons learnt from High school

Time has really flown and things have changed; I have changed(tremendously).

It Only seems like yesterday when I was in high school, half a decade ago to be exact. I remember being shy and naïve, didn’t really know much about life, so innocent, so pure. Since then my eyes have seen a lot and my heart has felt more, that which has made me who I am today.

  

All that seemed to matter back then was how rich your parents were and how physically attractive one seemed to be. I can’t believe we were that shallow.

I remember this one time a classmate decided to rank all of us in terms of how good looking we were, and surprisingly only Three of my classmates (including her) made it to the list. The rest of us were …well nowhere. She didn’t last a year after that, she ultimately became the most hated girl in the class, you know what they say hell hath no fury like a woman scorned or in this case a teenage girl.

It always seemed like the prettiest girl in the class had it easy, getting all the attention from the teachers, boys, prefects which made them very ‘popular’ back then. Then the kid with the rich folks had lots of fake friends who seemed to worship her . 

Am all grown up now, and my priorities are very different from what they used to be. In fact, I don’t even think the pretty popular kids were as attractive as I thought them to be.  Am not hating though, I just see things differently, my definition of attractive is different now. Am seeing it from a mature point of view. :)

Being attractive depends on how you see yourself and Girl dont put yourself down,you are beautiful and so am I.Oh well who am I kidding?? sometimes I feel like a 10 sometimes a 2, and most times I just dont care. I however don’t try to be something am not and neither should you. 

Get to know yourself and be comfortable with who you are. Embrace life, Be happy and live by your own rules. Also know what you really want in life. For me, I want peace of mind, health, a stable relationship, love and growth: career growth, spiritual growth and emotional growth. I want to understand life and take it as it comes, I also want to make a difference, to inspire and give hope to someone. #Life Lessons

What do you want in life???
