Good Morning!☀️
Sometimes, you have to be your own hype woman (man). You have to pump yourself up so well that whatever’s happening around you seems so small and insignificant that you can tune it out. Or that you can take on any and everything that comes your way because you know the outcome will be great.
Today, I’m singing “The Best Is Yet To Come,” trying to hype myself up. In the memory below, I wrote, “Believe me, you ain’t seen nothing yet!” Well, that was me hyping myself up, and honestly, it probably worked. However, today, I’m not feeling it. Whew! I’m not feeling it at all. Y’all, I’m going to need a minute to process what’s happened over the past couple of days.
Yeah… I need time to process this. I can’t believe all our progress as a society is about to be ripped away. All the work women fought for to have our voices heard and respected as equal—gone. All the progress we’ve made since slavery and the Civil Rights movement—gone. Religious freedoms—gone. Global respect—gone. And people are celebrating.
Yeah… I’m going to need a minute. I cannot allow my own hope and optimism to die like everything else. I cannot and will not allow my heart to become hard because love is everything to me. What is the world without it? So, this will probably be my only post for today. I need to connect with God. I don’t know or understand what He’s doing, but I still trust Him. However, right now, my heart hurts.
Wishing you a wonderful day!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
It’s Shaun’s World 
Maybe God isn’t doing anything. He gives us free will to make our choices. Wishing you peace, dear Shaun.

My crush sent me a few positive affirmations yesterday afternoon because she knew I wouldn’t be taking it well at all, but oddly enough, I’m just breathing and being until I cannot.
Something in my gut tells me his sentencing isn’t going to be what he wants it to be. He’s still a full blown criminal and authorities were waiting until after the election to make a decision.
God has a crazy sense of humor. We will never know what He has up His sleeve.
But He protects His children. 🙏🏾💙
