My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
Keep shining.
Keep glowing.
Keep loving.
Keep sowing.
Through you, life grows.
You were not meant to carry the world on your shoulders, yet you do. It is what you do without a second thought. Your love and nurturing is invaluable.
This month, we celebrate all of the strong, brilliant and tenacious women who paved the way for us to live in our strengths and truth. This month we celebrate YOU!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Yes, my first post for today has the same message. Smile. After sharing it here and across my social media platforms, I actually felt the message. It’s one thing to speak/say it and another to feel it. Well, I felt and still feel it, so I am sharing it…again.
Expect great things to happen! Expect it with all your heart and soul. Block the thoughts that you’re only psyching yourself up for disappointment. Baby nawl! NOT TODAY!! From here on out, despite our current situation or what we currently feel and see—keep hope and optimism flowing—great things will happen. Let’s intentionally expect them to happen. Just like I truly believe love conquers all, hope does also. Let’s fill the atmosphere with hope.
Love you!♥️
Shaun
P.S. Couldn’t wait until my schedule time to share. Had to share it now. Listen, God is working and moving. Let’s move with Him.
Wait with expectation!
Could not decide between the two memories so I am sharing both.

Never stop expecting great things to happen even when you can’t see or feel anything happening. There was a time when I had stopped expecting anything at all. I had lost all hope. So grateful that time was short lived.
Today, I am expecting great things happen because I know God loves me. I can never lose hope again. Not on this side of 50. I have witnessed too many great things happen in my life and for others to believe I have already received and/or experienced all life has to offer. I know there is so much more to come.
Hello March! I am expecting great things to happen.♥️

Today has been one of those steady, long days. Finally settling down and watching Kung Fu Panda 3 with my nieces (a 5 and 2 year old) and nephew (3 years old). I am sitting here trying so hard not to fall asleep. They took a long nap this afternoon so they are wide awake. Y’all, I don’t know how people my age have grandchildren or little ones. I am so used to falling asleep whenever I please. Please pray for me. Lol.
By the way, my sister’s labor and delivery went well. They induced her at 7:30 AM. Then around 10:45 AM she texted me and my sisters to tell us she was ready to start pushing. My nephew was born at 11:03. Had to be one of the smoothest deliveries I ever. He weighed 8 lbs 14 ounces. Her last two weighed a little over 9 lbs and she was induced with them too. Both mom and baby are great. She’ll be home tomorrow.
Anyhoo… As I said, please keep me in your prayers. I am sooo sleepy.

Smile. Today is a wonderful day. Yes, it’s wonderful because YOU, my friend, are wonderful!♥️ ~ Shaun
In a few hours, I will have another nephew! A leap year baby!! He will be the newest member of our family since my mom passed. I’m excited. Can’t wait to see his little face.
It’s funny how the mind works. Two things came to mind when I wrote the title, a scripture and a song.
The scripture: Revelation 21:5 (NIV)
He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”
The song: Boyz II Men’s “On Bended Knees” (the part where they sing about a new life)
I want a new life
And I want it with you
If you feel the same
Don’t ever let it go
You gotta believe in the spirit of love
It’ll heal all things
It won’t hurt anymore
Welcome to my world! I just love how my mind works. Keeps me entertained, for sure.
The message – God is making everything new.
Wish my mom was here to celebrate our newest member. It’s funny that about a month or so before she passed she told us my sister was pregnant, and my sister denied it. My mom only smiled. Well, a few months after she passed we found out my sister was pregnant. She knew. Smiling
Wishing you wonderfully, blessed day.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Last year I shared, “Love and give freely.” When you love and give from your heart—without zero expectations in return—life becomes more beautiful.♥️ ~Shaun
Today’s blog is a short excerpt from my journal entry written on February 28, 2021. At the time, I happened to be listening to Bishop T.D. Jakes’ Sunday morning message, “Give Us An Awakening.” Here’s what I wrote:
Shaun, the gate is going to be open when you get there. You won’t have to push it open, it will just be open.
Listen, I am at a point where I refuse to accept that there will always be some sort of struggle before a blessing is received. I refuse to accept it as truth. There just has to be a time when we walk straight into our blessing(s). No struggle. No pain. Only bliss. And not in the afterlife.
So, today, instead of speaking in future tense, I am speaking as if it is so.
Shaun, you are at the gate. It’s open. Walk through.
Simple.
Walking through.♥️
Take Care,
Shaun
Earlier today, James Fortune’s song, “I Trust You,” came to mind when I shared my earlier post, Obedience, on Instagram, so I attached the song to my story and reel. Here are the lyrics.
I Trust You by James Fortune
Lyrics: Genuis.com
Even though I can’t see
And I can’t feel your touch
I will trust you lord
How I love you so much
Though my nights may seem long
And I feel so alone
Lord my trust is in you
I surrender to you
So many painful thoughts
Travel through my mind
And I wonder how
I will make it through this time
But I trust you
Lord it’s not easy
Sometimes the pain in my life
Makes you seem far away
But I’ll trust you
I need to know you’re here
Through the tears and the pain
Through the heartache and rain
I’ll trust you
(James Fortune)
Oh God I trust You
Sometimes it’s so hard because
Everything that I see
Tells me not to believe
Everything that I see
Tells me not to believe
But i’ll trust you lord
You have never failed me
My past still controls me
Will this hurt ever leave’
I can only trust you
No one else like you do
So many painful thoughts
Travel through my mind
And I wonder how
I will make it through this time
But I trust you
Lord it’s not easy
Sometimes the pain in my life
Makes you seem far away
But I’ll trust you
I need to know, you’re here
Through the tears and the pain
Through the heartache and rain …
I can
I will
I must
Trust you
To me, the lyrics only convey part of the message. It’s James Fortune’s intro and spoken words throughout the song that carries the true message.
Be Blessed♥️

Your obedience to God unlocks doors. Be obedient.♥️
As much as we would love to step out on our own, let’s not do so. Let’s remain obedient to God. He holds the keys that will unlock miracles and blessings.
Wishing you peace, love and blessings!♥️
