My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
No matter what—Keep showing up! Even if you have to take multiple breaks to reflect, recharge and refocus, keep showing up. Also, remember to place your faith in God, not people. People may not understand your situation, but God does. He sees all and knows all. As I said in my previous blog, the only approval you need is God’s.♥️ ~Shaun

Remember to celebrate all of your successes including those only you and God know about. Like the fears, doubts, insecurities, and perfectionism you overcame before making your first move. Yes, those successes are just as important and should be celebrated too.
Love you!♥️

Mindset: a mental attitude or inclination
How we respond to situations is dependent on our mindset. When our mindset changes, we change—everything around us changes.♥️ ~Shaun
Facebook Memory: November 6, 2016
I love my life. Someone on Twitter asked, “If you could change one thing about your childhood, what would it be?” I thought and thought. For years I wished that things were different. I wished that we had more. That I was loved more. That I didn’t have to go through so many things that could have caused me to lose my mind. But I responded with, “I wouldn’t change a thing.” Everything I’ve gone through has shaped and molded me into the person I am today. I’m able to help others because of what I’ve been through. I believe that’s what God wants us to do. Our past negative experiences aren’t for us to wallow in and complain about. They’re there to inspire others. While we’re going through difficulties we usually can’t see a way out.
If you’re still breathing, it means you’ve made it! You may not be where you want to be, but you’re here!!
I know this is long. I’m used to journaling. I just wanted to share my thoughts. I woke up this morning thinking about all of the turmoil around us. Like everything else, we’ll make it through this. My great great grandma, Madear, was not a “saint.” I can probably count on one hand how many times she actually went to church. However, one thing she did every morning, as soon as she got out of bed, was say a prayer and read Psalms 23. She did this EVERY morning. Whenever I’m going through something I always remember Psalms 23. Like I said, she wasn’t a “saint,” but she instilled in me the value of ALWAYS putting God first no matter what. I miss her so much. I thank God for placing her in my life.
That’s all. Be blessed!🙏🏾❤️
That was written seven years ago. Today, my answer is still the same, I wouldn’t change a thing. Yesterday I came across a short segment of a discussion between Jay Shetty and Tony Robbins (Escape Your Misery). Although it was only eleven minutes long, the message was so powerful. It was about the choices we make after experiencing difficulties. Either we allow them to take us further down or we allow them to propel us forward. Over my lifetime, I have always attempted the latter. Maybe not like Tony, but I have and I plan to continue doing so.
Looking back—everything I went through made me the woman I am today; and everything I am currently going through is shaping the woman I am to become tomorrow. Taking no experience for granted. Using them all as fuel to push forward.
Enjoy your day!♥️

This isn’t going to be long. Just watched this message by Pastor Steven Furtick. When I tell you it’s confirmation that I cannot give up. Y’all, I am not too late or too old to achieve my goals and dreams. Everything will happen according to God’s plan and timing.
I just love the way God loves me. This message was just for me.♥️
Here’s Pastor Furtick’s message: The Limp Won’t Make You Late.

This is another gem from November 5, 2022 that has reminded me of my “why”. I must have been looking for something important that day and found my first passport. I was 17 years old when I got it. Seventeen and ready to take on the world. Y’all, I just knew I was going to change the world. Then life happened. As I told my daughter this morning, everything I thought was working against me, I now see it was working for me. God knew I wasn’t ready. That I needed to experience life and work on a few things before I could move forward. It really is true, life does not happen to us, it happens for us.
As I said in today’s Hello Sunday, I must stay focused. This dream has been following me most of my life. So many times I tried to shake it but couldn’t. So, I must keep going until it comes to fruition!♥️
