Reactions as native doctor posts Destiny Boy's video

@Douglas said:

"I hate how social media makes us that life has stages. It’s normal to be broke, to have broke friends or partners and yes it’s even normal to be unemployed at times. These are phases we all go through. Some people are lucky to find a good jobs at a young age and afford a certain lifestyle. Others take longer that’s perfectly okay. We need to stop comparing ourselves and start accepting our journey. I just want all of us to be at peace with where we are in life while still working and striving for better."
