🎉🎉 Today, I am celebrating another milestone—1200 consecutive days of posting! Woohoo!!!🎉 That’s over 3 years of posting every single day.
1200 Days!
Rain or shine, happy or sad, up or down, I’ve posted. I haven’t missed one single day of sharing a piece of my world with the world. I pray my posts have added a little more love, hope, kindness, and inspiration to every soul they’ve reached.
To my readers, I absolutely love y’all!!💗💗💗
Thank you for your support and encouragement. Thank you for allowing me to share my thoughts, testimonies, and experiences with you. I truly appreciate you! I pray you are having a wonderful day. Remember to take care of yourself, first, and to also celebrate all your successes, whether big or small. They matter. YOU matter!♥️
Today is turning out to be one of those days where I am just going with the flow. There’s no rush to do anything. No set schedule. I’m just letting life flow. I’m allowing both goodness and love to flow freely through me, as well as surround me.♥️ ~Shaun
Good Morning! Five years ago, I asked myself if I was living or just existing. It’s one of my favorite lines from my fav’s movie, “The Family That Preys.” Back then, I had to really think about it. Honestly, I couldn’t fully say that I was. Well, today, that answer is “Baby, yes! I am definitely living!” As I have said so many times before, I am absolutely loving this side of 50! Y’all, it’s the best!♥️ ~Shaun
Here’s what else I found among my memories, pictures from my first BBD concert. I recently wrote about the tickets I won the day before my birthday in 2014. However, what I didn’t include—which I included in the book I wrote that morning but nixed at the last minute—was that I actually saw them in concert five years before and I spoke to Michael Bivins. And guess what?! He spoke back!!! AHHHHHH!!!😂😂😂😂😂 Y’all, I absolutely love my life!
I screenshot it so the date would remain.☺️ Isn’t it cool!!
Had to stop and make yesterday’s quote the wallpaper for my phone. Every time I look at my phone I will be reminded of who I am and Whose I am. I am God’s child ALL day long!🥰
Same for you. Remember who you are and Whose you are. You are God’s child. Own your position!♥️
This is so true. Everyone cannot handle our truths. It took me a very long time to realize this—basically, a lifetime. For years I believed people wanted to know the authentic version of me. I thought I could be free and open with people who seemed to like me. It took many heartbreaks and letdowns to learn that most people didn’t want to know the real me, they only wanted to interact with and know the version they could tolerate (not accept). This is why I only have a handful of close friends, and my closest get to experience all of me.
In one of my very first blog posts (June 2018) I wrote—
“It’s not easy being transparent in a world that glorifies what’s fake and shuns reality. Reality isn’t pretty. Reality shows vulnerability– the bumps, bruises and scars.”
This blog site, “It’s Shaun’s World,” was originally created to be a space where I could be authentic and transparent. I really wanted to share my world with others. However, over the years I learned to tone it down and only release bits and pieces of me in small doses. Not everyone likes happiness. Some don’t like quirkiness. And many don’t like when people share their vulnerabilities with the world. Those are things I guess are supposed be kept private or only shared with friends or a therapist. I believed people wanted to know the human side of people—because that’s what I want to get to know, the real—when in reality they only want a character.
Anyhoo… I could go on and on. Here’s what I shared two years ago.
Facebook Memory: August 16, 2022
“Being transparent has its limits. Our lives were never meant to be an open book for all to read. Knowing when, what and with whom to share is vital. Everyone can’t handle your truth.♥️”
Yes, unlike in 2018, I now know this is true. Everyone can’t handle my truth—which is the reason I sometimes write posts that I never share—even when they’re my true experiences. Not everyone would or could understand, and that’s okay.
Well, that’s my truth for now. I pray you have a lovely Friday and beautifully, blessed weekend. Love you!♥️
