Title:
"I’m 18, Gay, Ghanaian reaching out.
My name is Caleb. I’m 18 years old. I’m from Ghana. I’m a student nurse. I’m gay. I’m a dreamer.
I grew up in a place where being different being me — often feels like something you have to hide to survive. But deep inside, I’ve always known I was meant for more.
More than hiding. More than just existing.
I dream of acting, of modeling, of cooking, of telling stories that reach people the way I’ve always wished someone would reach me. I’ve written my first script Dear Future Caleb a story about queerness, heartbreak, identity, and hope. It’s based on my life, my heartbreak, my healing. It’s honest. It’s messy. It’s mine.
I’ve loved people who didn’t love me back. I’ve been ghosted, misled, left behind. But I still believe in love. I still want it soft, loud, messy, real. I want someone to build with, laugh with, explore life with someone who sees me and stays.
I want freedom too. Freedom to live, create, love, and be seen for everything I am.
I respect nursing it’s taught me discipline and compassion. But I know my soul is creative. I want to make films. I want to blend food and feeling. I want to act in things that matter.
I want to live somewhere I can breathe fully somewhere that lets me be bold, free, and loved.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in a place that doesn’t see you… if you’re chasing something bigger even when everything tells you not to… I see you. And maybe you see me too.
This is me trying.
If you’re someone who knows about opportunities in acting, film, mentorship, creative programs or you just believe in stories like mine… feel free to reach out. Even just a kind word goes a long way.
I don’t know where this path will take me. But I’ll keep walking it with hope in one hand and love still in my heart.
