Find Your Happy Moments

Shaun Bradford

“Happiness begins when we choose love, light, and courage over fear.” –Shaun’s Daily Inspiration

In a world that’s not always a happy place to be, please be intentional about finding happy moments. Whether it’s in a smile, a hug, or beautiful memories—find those moments and hold them dearly.

I briefly logged onto X and saw posts celebrating the Obama Presidential Center. I’m so grateful those posts were the first to greet me. Those posts are what I consider happy moments. If you’re not busy, be sure to tune in tomorrow, June 18th, to watch the official dedication of the presidential center. I’m sure it will be live streaming on different platforms and channels. It’s a moment in history that cannot be missed. I know the spirits of our forefathers will be there with their blessings.

Happy moments…

I pray you have a beautifully blessed day. May it be filled with lots of love, joy, and peace.♥️

I love you,

Shaun

**Happy Birthday, Deborah! You know I couldn’t forget you. Wishing you so many blessings. Enjoy your day!🌺🎉💕🙏🏽

Hello Sunday (282)

Shaun Bradford

Happy Sunday!☀️

Today, I am so grateful and blessed to be alive. Blessed to hear the birds singing. To see the beautiful sunshine. To breathe in fresh air. To have food to eat, water to drink, shelter, transportation, and the ability to move about freely.

Yes, I am blessed.

Ten Days until Year53…

This year’s excitement about my upcoming birthday is quite different. Usually, I’m bubbling with excitement, counting down the days, and imagining what I’ll do. However, the excitement I currently have is more contained. It’s a peaceful excitement. If that makes sense. It’s an excitement of knowing that I’m stepping into another year of wisdom—another year of maturity and growth.

Before I took my break (which I’m now referring to as a short sabbatical), I finally accepted the role as the matriarch of my family. A role that was already mine, but one that I wasn’t ready to accept. Well, I have accepted it, which means I must move differently. I have to be more mindful of what I do and don’t do (because that also matters). I’ll never be all stuffy because I love life too much. However, the way I move through life will change a bit. It’s already changed…for the better. Smile

I know I say it all the time, but I never knew this side of 50 could be so different. I’m thankful for the change. Thankful for God’s love, patience, and grace because they have gotten me to this place. I’m so looking forward to the blessings this side of 50 will continue to bring.

I pray that you have a lovely Sunday! Talk to you later.♥️

I love you,

Shaun

Release All Limits

Shaun Bradford
January 1, 2026

Let’s start the year off right by releasing all limits—the limits we’ve placed on God and the limitations we’ve placed on ourselves. No more surviving this year. This year is about thriving, only, and operating from our overflow.

Breathe and release.

You got this!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Don’t Wait! You’re Already There

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️ and Happy Self Love Saturday!🥰

Here’s a Self Love Saturday video I made for TikTok a couple of years ago. I said I could feel myself living in my dreams.

Although we speak as if our dreams are destinations, I believe they’re ongoing stories. It’s our mindset—and let’s be real, our circumstances, too—that tells us our dreams are far off. However, it’s not the dream that we’re waiting for, but the part of the dream we envisioned.

As I said in the video, “I’m already there. I don’t have to wait.” Smiling as I think about how I started doing things I envisioned myself doing when I reached the dream. I stopped waiting for the dream to happen and started living it. Eventually, I’ll see what I envisioned—in God’s time.☺️

Listen, the dream is happening. It’s happening every day from the moment you open your eyes to the time you fall asleep. You are living in your dream(s). You just haven’t reached the part you envisioned.

I dare you to start living like you’re already there. Believe me, you’ll be amazed by how your life changes!

This is it for now. I pray you have a beautiful day! Remember to do something extra special for yourself.♥️

I love you,

Shaun

Hello Sunday

Happy Sunday!☀️

I pray all is well with you.🌷

No matter what comes or goes, stay with God. He will never give up on you, so don’t give up on Him.

Deuteronomy 31:8
“The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.”

Stay with God. He’s got you!♥️

I love you always,

Blessed and Favored

Shaun Bradford

Singing, “Blessed And Highly Favored” by The Clark Sisters. The song says—

“He brought me through hard trials. He brought me through tribulations. Never let a day go by and not realize, had it not been for the Lord who was on my side…”

“Don’t take it for granted that we are here today. Just know that we’re blessed and highly favored.”

I know that I am blessed and highly favored, and I don’t take it for granted. All praises to God. Amen

I hope and pray that you know the same. You are blessed and highly favored. Yes, YOU!♥️

Love you always,

Shaun

Favor. Overflow. Grace.
