US resident deletes historic photo to evoke sad memories

AND A man from Ghana living in the United States comes face-to-face with a past version of himself that triggered difficult memories that prompted him to delete the photo.

A young man identified as @official_clev on X shared a throwback photo of himself during his hardships in Ghana before moving to USA.

He said he stumbled upon the photo, which gave him the chills because of how bad it looked and the memories it evoked.

“I just saw my old photo and it made me so sad, I had to delete it because it was so bad. I mean it when I say, “Man is man, but GOD is Divine.” he wrote.

His post caused mixed reactions among followers. Some supported his decision, while others believed he should have kept the photo as a record of his trip.

One user, @doeyoasante, commented, “You didn’t have to delete it! This is a testament to the incredible ways the Lord has blessed you. Just think about it—times and seasons—they’re all part of an amazing journey!”

Another user, @DayoOjo, shared a different point of view saying, “I don’t think I can delete the old photo. It’s a reminder of how far I’ve come.”
