Authentically Me

Shaun Bradford

They say a picture is worth a thousand words. Earlier today I shared a picture from a few days ago. I had taken it after my cousin’s 70th birthday party and right before I removed my makeup, which was already wearing off. I decided to share this particular photo—unedited, without posing, just looking directly in the camera—because I felt it was my most authentic. I was exhausted, but felt so blessed (hence the reason for the photo). This little girl is now a grown woman. A 50 year old woman who is here, aging, and not afraid to be. No longer afraid to share her authentic, most vulnerable self.

I’m sharing this because a very opinionated friend of mine posted a response that only they could and would. Shaking my head, laughing. Honestly, it was a response that would’ve made me feel awkward for sharing, and would have had me second guessing my decision. However, today, I’m free. As Fantasia sings, “This is me.” It’s me and I absolutely love me.

Here’s my post. Those who get it, get it. Those who don’t…not my problem. I’m living!

Authentically me.

That’s all. Just felt like sharing. Praying you have a wonderful night. Listen, don’t be afraid to let people see the real you. It’s you! Love you.♥️

The Secret Is In Knowing

Shaun Bradford

I shared the message below a couple of years ago. What I have since learned is that “Knowing” is the secret.♥️ ~Shaun

At this present moment in time, I already have everything I need. Whatever I need for next, God will provide that too. I’m not guessing or hoping He will. I know He will.

Only One Week Away

Shaun Bradford

Hey Y’all! I am only one week away from one of the greatest dates of my life… MY BIRTHDAY!!!🎉🎉🎉

Almost 51! God is soooo amazing! Never, ever imagined being 50. I’m in awe. Grateful and blessed.🌺

Year51 is right around the corner. Smiling because this year, Year50, my Jubilee year, has probably been one of my most interesting years yet—spiritually. Never knew I needed the spiritual awakening I received. This awakening has been the driving force behind so many life changing experiences—mentally, emotionally, financially, physically, etc. Y’all, I am not sure what Year51, or this side of 50, holds; however, I do know this past year was preparation for the rest.

Cheers to the final week of my Jubilee year. It’s been real… for real!

Praying you have a beautifully, blessed week as we celebrate this last week of my Jubilee year. Yes, we. I am inviting you along. Let’s celebrate!🎉

Love you always,

Shaun

If you haven’t noticed by now, I create my own excitement. Always have and always will. Smile♥️

Love

Saw this Facebook memory and immediately heard Earth, Wind & Fire’s, “Can’t Hide Love.” You can’t hide it so you may as well let it in. Just saying.♥️ ~Shaun

Facebook Memory: June 16, 2022

For love to win, you must first allow it in. Love cannot enter a closed heart.♥️

Love and be loved.

Happy Father’s Day

Shaun Bradford

Today, I am veering a little off script. Instead of writing my Father’s Day message under my “Hello Sunday” post, I have decided to give fathers their own post.

To all of my wonderful fathers out there, know that we see you. Yes, we actually see you. We see you, and you are loved and appreciated. Enjoy your day!💙

Alton Sutton (my daddy) inspired.

Spending the day with my daddy. Not sure how much longer we have left together. Going to spend as much time as possible with him as I can. He’s not sick, but he is getting older and moving a little slower. He’s my heart.♥️

Me and my daddy.
