Life Lessons

The following is a lesson about how what we write on the net, always remains. A friend posted the message 42 Life Lessons. Somewhere along the line, someone made a mistake and listed the author’s age as 90. That attracted a lot of attention. I enjoyed reading the post and did some research about the […]
