The Good Times
Good Morning!☀️
They say time heals all wounds. Well, good memories soothes the soul.
Time and great memories are key to getting through tough times. Be sure to hold those memories close.
Praying you have a wonderful day and a lovely weekend.♥️
Love you,

Nonprofits and Organizations That Support Causes I Am Passionate About
If you had a million dollars to give away, who would you give it to?
If I had a million dollars to give away—meaning I’m in a good place financially to give it away☺️—I would give it to nonprofits and other organizations that support the same or similar causes I am passionate about.
So many people require assistance due to inequities, lack of resources, health disparities, disasters (both natural and man made), geographic locations, and just life in general (our mental and emotional wellbeing definitely matters). I wish I could personally help everyone; however, I know that’s impossible. Therefore, I would give to organizations that can. It would be my way of reaching those I cannot physically see or touch.
My mission in life is to spread as much love and hope to as many people as possible. I believe meeting their needs will in turn accomplish this. So, yeah, that’s what I would do.♥️
God First
Good Morning!☀️
The year before I shared the graphic above, I wrote the following caption for another post.
October 10, 2021
“This post is so true. What I’ve learned in the short time that I’ve been working for myself is to keep going. Keep trying new things. Keep networking. Keep learning. Keep taking leaps. And most importantly – KEEP GOD FIRST! Y’all, the ways He’s shown up is mind blowing. Tearing up as I think about it. He’s so good. Yes, definitely keep Him first!”
Keeping God first has been the only way I’ve managed to make it through the tough times (it can get pretty tough) and the good times (remaining humble). Y’all, His guidance is impeccable! You don’t want to move without it. However, it does require unwavering trust and obedience. Don’t worry, He’ll give you assignments along the way to build and strengthen both. Smile
Today, my advice is still the same. First, and most importantly, always keep God first! Y’all, He must remain first. Then, continue learning, creating, networking, and leaping. Eventually, everything will fall into place.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Check Your Heart
Where’s your heart these days?
Where your heart is, matters. It guides your decisions and actions, whether consciously or subconsciously. Be sure to check your heart posture, and check it often.
Is it sad?
Is it mad?
Is it broken?
Is it hurt?
Is it disappointed?
Is it bitter?
Is it jealous?
Is it resentful?
Is it hateful?
Is it closed?
Or…
Is it joyful?
Is it happy?
Is it hopeful?
Is it excited?
Is it peaceful?
Is it grateful?
Is it trusting?
Is it loving?
Is it kind?
Is it empathetic?
Is it compassionate?
Is it open?
It’s important to know where your heart’s at to ensure you’re moving towards a brighter, healthier, and happier future.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
You ARE A Winner🌟
Good Morning!☀️
Here’s what I shared last year, October 9, 2023
“Hey, You! Yes… YOU! I’m rooting for you. You will win!”
Guess what? I am still rooting for you! Just consider me your personal cheerleader. Pom poms, bullhorn, confetti and all! I know you will achieve everything you set your mind to do. Now, KEEP GOING!! Remember, great things take time. You’ve got this!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Blessings

Sending you blessings. Tons… Loads… Showers of blessings.♥️
Love you,

One Word
Good Morning!☀️
If I could choose one word to express how I feel at this moment, aside from feeling blessed, it would be “Thankful.”
I am thankful for life.♥️ ~Shaun
My Vision
I had completely forgotten about my second post for today. Been trying to stay present and take in every moment of this conference. I have also been giving everyone I engage with my full attention—from the speakers, to the exhibitors, to the custodians. Everyone deserves to feel heard and seen. I believe it’s one of the first steps in making the world a better place.
I see you.
I hear you.
You matter.
I also had a chance to meet up with one of my fellow Potter’s House e-members. We have been watching and tweeting (yes, still Twitter) during Sunday services for a few years now. I believe we discovered that we were both Registered Dietitians two years or so ago. Well, we finally got to meet in person today! It was good to feel her energy and personality. Although our encounter was very brief, I believe it was one that needed to be had.
Three years ago, I shared the quote above, “Focus on your vision. In time, everything will fall in place.” And it will. I see it happening. From the encounters I’ve had during this conference to the sessions I’ve attended, all are connected to my vision of a healthier, kinder world. To see and feel it is quite amazing.
God is working, and I am staying focused and present so I can experience all of it.♥️

October 2019: What A Month!
Good Morning!☀️
This weekend was hard because it reminded me of my brother’s death in October 2019. However, now I’m remembering one of the happier moments of October 2019.
This morning I was bombarded with all kinds of wonderful memories of my fav being celebrated. Little did I know that two extremes could happen in the same month. To be on ten at one point—because I was celebrating and posting like I was there with Tyler Perry. I was so excited and happy for him! Only to hit zero—less than zero—two weeks later when my brother died. Y’all, I could scream now! Life is something else!
Anyhoo… I’m going to keep it on a happy note. No tears today.
Here’s what I shared five years ago after purchasing this magazine.
Now, here’s what I shared moments ago when I reshared it on Facebook.
Facebook Present😉: October 7, 2024
Great memory!! I believe this was one of Tyler Perry’s most memorable years of his success and brilliance being on display for the world to see. That summer he made one of his most famous speeches at the BET awards about the importance of ownership and not allowing anyone to stop us from fulfilling our dreams. It was also the same year, and around this time, that Tyler Perry Studios had its grand opening. Oh, and he also got his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. What a year that was!🌟
For me, it was the excitement of watching God fulfill a dream in real time. I had been following Tyler’s endeavors for a while, and it was great to see him celebrated. But, listen, Tyler’s dream isn’t the only one I’ve been following. No, I’ve been following YOURS, too! I see YOU, and I see what God is doing in your life. You may not always see it because you’re too close to it. However, God is working and doing some AMAZING things in your life. Whatever you dreamed WILL come to fruition. I see it!!
I look at Tyler’s story and his success as motivation to keep going. Yes, all of us will have setbacks, as Tyler did. However, we must not give up. Listen, cry when you need to cry. Take a break when needed. But whatever you do, NEVER give up on your dreams! Love you!♥️
**Just want to add, it’s so cool that he’s sharing the cover with baby Archie. I bet he never imagined in a million years he would become a godfather to an actual princess. How beautiful is that!💖
Again, great memory!
Y’all, as I mentioned, I’m following YOUR dreams, too. I see YOU. I see God working. I see who you’re becoming. Don’t give up!
Praying you have an amazing week!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
