Living The Life I Imagined

Shaun Bradford

Every time I share this quote, I am reminded that I am living the life I imagined.

Facebook Memory: February 20, 2022

And so, she decided to start living the life she’d always imagined.

Author Unknown

The last time I shared this quote was a little over 2 years ago. Back then I thought I was living the life I had always imagined. Little did I know that was only the beginning. I’m not sure if I’m quite there yet, but it definitely feels like it. That’s what peace will do for you. God is good.

Are you living the life you’ve always imagined—spiritually, emotionally and mentally?

Now, here I am two years later (2024), again saying I am living the life I have always imagined. Of course, there is so much more to what I imagined, so many more aspirations and dreams to achieve. However, here and now, and even back then, the life I imagined was about peace and freedom. Basically, the freedom to walk in my truth; create my own path; and embrace my uniqueness. It’s about setting boundaries and creating an environment that fosters peace and love. Therefore, I am living the life I imagined.

I pray you are living the life you have always imagined or getting there. Wishing you a beautiful day. Love you always!♥️

Grace

Shaun Bradford

Everyone has been through something or is currently going through something. How about we extend grace, kindness, compassion, and love.

Another thought…

How about we treat others the way we would want to be treated in our times of despair and need. Love you!♥️~ Shaun

We have been gifted grace from God. Let’s share it with others.

Hello Sunday

Shaun Bradford

Happy Sunday!

Listen, my attempt at posting something completely original is already out the window. Laughing. I looked at my Facebook memories and just had to share this gem from last year.

Facebook Memory: February 18, 2023

You do not have to see the entire picture before making a move. Just make the move and trust God to guide you through the unknown.♥️

I am going to add—because it’s what I have been doing lately—you don’t even have to see the picture at all. God’s word is enough. Trust it and move.

Some of the things I have experienced recently have required me to make quick decisions. I haven’t had the luxury of waiting days to think of how different decisions could play out. They have been those “God’s hands is on this, now move” situations. Basically, I haven’t had time to create fake scenarios that would self-sabotage opportunities. When God says it’s a good opportunity, I move. And at that first gut feel that something that sounds good isn’t right, I decline it quickly. Don’t even give it a chance to linger in my mind. Listen, I can think of all kinds of ways to make bad “good” opportunities align with my goals and purpose. Doing so in the past only delayed things I could have or should have been doing. Lessons learned.

Here’s my advice or what I have been living by. Trust God and move. No questions asked. Know the difference between the fear of doing something new and a true gut warning. Believe me, God will confirm your move within minutes. That, “Didn’t you ask for XYZ” is often the only confirmation needed.

Well, this is all I have right now. My daughter is leaving this morning going back to her new home. She and her fiancé came home last weekend for the Super Bowl and stayed the entire week (both work remotely). It was so great having her home. Last night we had one of our long, deep conversations. Honestly, I am not sure what we discussed but it was wonderful. I just love hearing her views on different topics, even though we don’t always agree. She’s a realist and I am…a bit different. Smile. However, all while she was talking I kept thinking, “This is my child.” Y’all, I am so proud of my two. Listen, they are not perfect but they are sooo perfect for me. I am blessed.

Wishing you a peaceful Sunday.♥️

Take Care,

Shaun
