My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
Y’all, I am still here. Still standing!! When I tell you God is so wonderful. I can hear Marvin Sapp singing–
Here I am, I’m still standing
Here I am, after all I’ve been through
I’ve survived every toil, every snare
I’m alive, I’m alive
Here I am
“Here I Am” by Marvin Sapp
If you’re reading this, YOU are still here and still standing, too. Whatever was meant to destroy you, couldn’t. You’re STILL here!! Love you!♥️ ~Shaun
Keeping it simple.
Spread love, not hate.
Wishing you a blessed weekend.
Love you!♥️

“He who does not love, does not know God, for God is love.”
1 John 4:8
God IS love.♥️
Today, let’s intentionally be kind. Let’s even be kind to those who don’t deserve our kindness. Kind, but not a doormat. As my momma use to say, “Don’t mistake my kindness for weakness.” Love you!♥️ ~Shaun

Choose kindness. Kindness is not indicative of weakness. It’s a sign of strength, control and humility. And yes, it’s possible to exhibit all three simultaneously. I dare you to try it!😉
Listen, I am on a roll today!! Usually, I try to suppress and/or contain my energy because sometimes it can be a little too much. But today I am on a 10, maybe 20! A short while ago, after I shared my last post, I saw a reel by motivational speaker, Trent Shelton (sharing it below). Here’s what I wrote when I reshared it:
One of the REALIST posts ever!🥺 This is what it looks like when you’re fulfilling your purpose. Encouragement is in Trent Shelton’s DNA. It’s who he is.
Side note: No matter how much you try to separate who you are from your God-given purpose/calling, it won’t happen. Believe me, it will keep showing up. So you might as well embrace it. Just like with Trent, it’s in your DNA.
Listen, when you KNOW what your purpose is, when you KNOW who you are, embrace it! Forget trying to fit someone else’s narrative. That’s not you. You are who you are—it’s in your DNA. You (we, including myself) will only be able to live life fully when you embrace and walk in your God-given purpose.
Boo, it’s time to live!♥️

You deserve a wonderful life. Period. Have a wonderfully, blessed day.♥️
So, in the late nineties I was a basketball fanatic. I lived and breathed basketball. Never played any sports in my life, but I loved watching basketball. When I tell you I used to be so hyped during basketball season! I knew the stats on so many players, and was obsessed with collecting basketball cards (spent way too much money). Don’t know when or how I got started collecting cards, but once I started I couldn’t stop. I am so glad that phase only lasted a few years.
Fun fact: I wanted to be a sports journalist back then. Even saw myself doing interviews.☺️
Here’s what I shared while watching Michael Jordan’s documentary, “The Last Dance.”
Facebook Memories: April 19, 2020
As you can tell, I was so excited! Michael was the GOAT! I imagine I was smiling for days. What a wonderful time in history. I even have the newspaper article from the win somewhere. Thought I had shared it, too. Maybe I shared it while watching another episode of the series. If so, I’ll share it with you later.
Y’all, I just love my life and my memories. My journal entries keep me entertained! If something happened back then, I probably wrote about it. I even have magazines from back then. So many stories and relationships documented. What a life we have lived.
By the way, I am trying my best not to get sucked into watching the escalating conflict that’s happening right now. Praying for the whole world, and leaving things in God’s hands. After I had my PTSD moment the other day, I went to read a chapter in Zechariah and ended up in the book of Zephaniah. If you are unfamiliar with it or haven’t read it in a while, I recommend that you do. It’s extremely short (only three chapters), but very telling. As much as we would like to control things, some things cannot be controlled. There have always been wars and famines since the beginning of time. We just never know when or where it will happen next. My prayer to God is always, if only for a few seconds, let the world experience total peace. That’s the harmony I seek.
Didn’t mean to end it on such a somber note. Life is so interesting…
Wishing you a wonderful day!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Shaun’s Daily Inspiration: April 5, 2022
Smile. God is still working. Whatever He began, He will finish. Hang in there.
It might take years, but God always finishes what He begins. Unlike us, He does not get tired or give up. Even when we have given up, He continues working. So, do not be discouraged by the wait or setbacks. I believe it is His way of making sure we are prepared to properly accept, handle, walk in, and live in the finished product. We have to be ready for it.
Y’all, I am so grateful God is patient and allows us time to process our fears and doubts. That He overlooks the countless times we self-sabotage opportunities because of our feelings of inadequacy. Yes, I am so grateful that He does not allow our egos to win. I don’t know about yours, but I know my ego can be a bit much at times. Grateful He does not give up on us when we have given up on ourselves.
Grateful and blessed.
Remember, whatever God began—even in your childhood—He will finish.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Can’t you hear Luther Vandross singing, “Little miracles happen everyday”? He goes on to say, “What is a miracle? Love is a miracle…” Yes, love is a miracle. It surrounds us daily. It’s one of God’s greatest miracles and it’s available to all. Receive it!♥️ ~Shaun
I really need to start back drawing. Been slacking. I guess it’s another thing I need to be more intentional about.
Friday morning praise and worship:
Singing🎶
Thank You, Lord
Thank You, Lord
Thank You, Lord
I just want to thank
You, Lord
You’ve been so good
You’ve been so good
You’ve been so good
I just want to thank
You, Lord
Flashback to when the rain was gone and the sun was shining. Grateful for both, the sun and the rain. Both are necessary for growth. However, I really prefer the sunshine. Don’t we all?☺️
Blessed!♥️

The song, “I Love You Lord Today,” has been playing over and over in my head since I opened my eyes. I guess you can say my spirit is setting the mood for the day.
The song says–
I love you, I love you
I love you Lord today
Because you care for me in such special way
That’s why I praise you
I lift you up and I magnify your name
That’s why my heart is filled with praise
Praying you have a wonderful day and beautiful weekend.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
