As an anxious person myself, I know exactly how you feel…. The anxiety.

You’re doing very great Tobe. And yes it does get better. Yes the clarity eventually sets in.

Take this weekend to rest & reset your sleeping schedule.

Take care of yourself first, so you can have enough of your beautiful energy to pour into whatever you do.

I’m always rooting and praying for you.

Love you❤️

Breatheeee Tobe

Just take a moment and breathe

I know it feels like everything is happening so fast or not even happening at all, and it seems like everyone is figuring out what they want to do with their lives but everyone has their own time and race and in between we are allowed to take breaks to avoid burnouts so take a break today or even for the whole weekend that’s up to you cause you are truly the master of your destiny. Just know that you are never alone, we are always rooting for you!!

Tobe give it time and stop being so hard on urself. Ur such an inspiration to me, People can admire anyone but it's rare to real inspirations that shows you have something in you, something that can teach others, build others. Don't allow yourself be pushed into the crowd or follow what others are doing please take a deep breathhhhhh and be sure it's what you want or else you'll regret it, pls do you and always remember imperfection is the real definition of beauty🫂. Love u so much🥹

I guess I found out that even though it's tough and would even get tougher, IT ACTUALLY GETS BETTER — well, over time. Really, it's all behind time. Give it time, Tobe. In all of these, let's look forward to the time we'll share the good ending. Sending love🥺❤️

Hello Tobe...😌

I just ran across your work few seconds ago. Your sincere heart caught me right away. But you know what?

You spoke about finding yourself, making your own decisions, being the master of your destiny.

Do you think you'll be less scared or worried if that were so? That's how we are, I guess. When we make the decision ourselves, we go, "Am I sure this is right? What if it flops? Everyone told me not to!" Then if we listen to them, we beat ourselves up for that too.

So, where does it end? I think true peace comes in Jesus. I don't think we were designed to handle our destinies all on our own. We would be like that peaceful child that "knows" tha Daddy's got it all covered.

And of course we wouldn't jump here, but we'd start somewhere with Jesus and let Him lead us to true peace and fulfillment.

Cheering for you, Tobe👍🏽👍🏽

This is you figuring out life and Finding Yourself Tobe. It’s quite normal. I think everyone chasing growth has constantly had this feelings. To be honest, not everyone has it figured out at the beginning. But yes it gets better.

For me, I come from a struggling home so most of my struggles, I see it as normal. Necessary enough to find happiness. So every single day, I wake up and do something towards my Future Self. I would say you should keep finding yourself. Online is really good. Connects you with so many people. There should be certain people you see yourself in. Maybe Future You or Present You. It gives Idea and Inspiration to the Kind of Life you can Create for yourself. That’s what I’ve found and I wake up every single day making hard choices towards Future Me. That would bring Fulfillment.

So for now, it is hard because it is meant to be. Surf it. Give yourself 2 years to balance life and within 5 years? You might actually be living a reality you would be much happier in. But please, do things that actually give you fulfillment. I mean, add it to the things you already do. Again, it isn’t easy, but on the brighter side, life wasn’t made to be easy 🌚

Dear Tobe, 🫂...

... just because I felt like I was looking into a mirror while I was reading this... and because sometimes it feels like the words to convey all the roiling emotions you're feeling haven't been invented yet, but you still try to find the words closest... and because you remind me that I'm not alone... and because you're also not alone.

I understand that growing up can be tough. It's about surviving through difficult times, embracing your scars and disappointments, and holding onto your dreams, even when they seem unrealistic. It's not just about losing innocence, but also about discovering your inner strength and realizing that the magic of life never truly disappears - it just transforms. It's the determination and relentless hope that maybe, just maybe, tomorrow will be better. So hold on to that hope, because growing up is a battle, but it's one worth fighting, scars and all. It may take a while, who am I kidding, it may take a year or two or three… but eventually, it will all get better.
