Want to be Happy? Be Happy

How many times have you said something like, “They make me happy,” “This is my happy space,” or “I am happiest when…”? I know throughout my lifetime I have said or thought it at least a million times. However, looking back, it wasn’t the people around me or the spaces I was in that made me happy, it was me choosing to be happy. I am not saying that my surroundings didn’t contribute to my happiness, but ultimately it was my decision to be happy that allowed me to experience it.

Y’all, I have been in some spaces where I should have felt my lowest, yet I was happy. I have also been in spaces where I should’ve been on cloud nine and was miserable. It took me years to realize I controlled my happiness. I am not saying that I am never sad or disappointed or heartbroken. What I am saying is, over time I decided happiness was a better choice, and I absolutely love being happy.

Yes, I am creating my own happiness… but not today! Today, I’m going back to Starbucks to get my Caramel Apple Spice. I need the real thing. Lol. Starbucks, make me happy!

Praying you have an absolutely amazing day. Remember, you are in control of your happiness. Love you!♥️

Renaissance

Still trying to wind down from Beyoncé’s Renaissance World Tour. Three hours! It was three whole hours of excellence!!

There was a quote that popped up during the show that said, “Imagination is more important than knowledge.” Something like that. Well, you could tell a lot of imagination went into her production. It was absolutely incredible. From the digital graphics that played between wardrobe changes to the tiny wrist lights, everything was well thought out. It was just beautiful. And her team! Magnificent!!

Also, I loved the diversity of her team and the audience. If I could describe the atmosphere with one word that word would be FREEDOM! You could feel the freedom—the freedom to just be. It was definitely a no judgement zone. Everyone was welcomed. At the end of the concert she said we are all connected. Y’all know I teared up. Crying now. She was right. We are so connected. I wish more people understood this.

If you have been reading my blogs for a while, you know that “I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing (In Perfect Harmony)” is one of favorite songs. Since I was a little girl I have imagined everyone one day singing in perfect harmony. Well, I witnessed it tonight and it was more than beautiful.

That’s all I have for you right now.

Good Night♥️

We had fun! Freedom is absolutely wonderful. Free to be me.

Got Time To Write

On my way to New Orleans to see Beyoncé! Yay!!!

Okay… although I’m excited, that’s not what prompted me to write. Was thinking about how long I have been blogging and posting under Shaun’s Daily Inspiration. When I first began, I was all into the numbers—views, impressions, likes, etc. Now… now I do it because I really enjoy doing it. I love sharing the messages God gives me, as well as sharing my stories and testimonies.

Y’all, God is really good. I may second guess a lot of things that I do but this I know for sure is what I am meant to do. Grateful.

Will write about my Renaissance experience tomorrow. Y’all have a blessed evening.♥️
