My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
Stay present or you’ll miss the new thing God is doing. Yesterday is gone, and sadly, tomorrow isn’t promised. So all we have is today.
I wholeheartedly believe there’s something beautiful and new attached to each day. If you are not careful, you’ll miss it. Love you!♥️ ~ Shaun
Good Morning! Smiling right now because I had planned on sharing the Facebook memory below, but this song keeps blaring over and over in my head. Yes, blaring! Laughing. So, I guess I’ll share both.
The song is “Love Isn’t Love” by Commissioned. It says, “Love isn’t love til you’ve given it away. It’s just waiting to be given. All bitterness erased.” That’s the part that’s stuck on repeat. Now it’s out. I pray whoever needs the message receives it. Smile. Now here’s today’s Facebook memory.

“When you’re ready to do it, you will do it. You won’t need motivation. The conditions won’t have to be right. You won’t have to have the money. Shoot… fear won’t even stop you. When you’re ready to make your move, you’ll make it, and everything else will fall into place.🤷🏽♀️”
All true. When you make up your mind to do something, you’ll just do it. It’s really that simple. It’s funny how we go back and forth with ourselves worried about what will and won’t work, and then one day, out of the blue, we just do it. I’m laying here thinking about so many things I was hesitant to do—some out of fear, others because I didn’t believe I was capable of doing—and then one day I just woke up and did them. Life is truly amazing.
Well, that’s it for now. I pray you have a wonderful day!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Also, I’ll leave you with Commissioned’s song, “Love Isn’t Love.” Be Blessed
Here’s a little reassurance for anyone who needs it. Listen, be patient. I know it’s easier said than done. However, if God said it, it will be. As I wrote three years ago, everything will happen in God’s appointed time—when He knows you are prepared to receive [it]—when you’re ready. I’m not just saying this because it sounds good and encouraging. I’m saying it because I know it to be true.♥️ ~Shaun
TikTok’s On This Day…
We were created to magnify God’s glory. Meaning others should see, hear, and feel Him through our words and actions.♥️
Side Note: Can’t you hear the gospel duo, Mary, Mary, singing, “God In Me”? Well, I can. Smile
I hope this past weekend left you well rested and ready to tackle this week. Please remember to take breaks when needed. Listen, there’s only ONE you, and you matter more than whatever you are working on. Love you!♥️

Feeling a bit off track? Feeling as if life has thrown you one too many curve balls and you’re tired of swinging? Are you asking if anything will ever work as you planned? I mean, God’s plan is the plan, right, but will the two ever align?
Guess what?!
You are right where you are meant to be… at this moment in time. However, it’s not where you are meant to stay. Be patient with the process, as well as with yourself. God’s plan and your dreams will eventually align. Everything will work out in your favor.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Just finished reading a journal entry from ten years ago where I had written down what I wanted to accomplish within 10 years, i.e., by now. Well, over the past ten years, some of my hopes and dreams faded away like they never existed. However, some remained; which are the ones I am still working towards. Looking back, I can see where I got off track; where I took a few detours and scenic routes. Do I regret not accomplishing everything within the allotted ten years? Honestly—and I am being so truthful—I don’t.
The last ten years…
Let’s just call the last ten years the Decade of Random Experiences—and boy was everything random. Not in a bad or regrettable way, but random. When I tell you my life was all over the place. As soon as I thought I was focused and things were headed in one direction something random would happen that would throw me off track—like every time. That was my 40s.
Now, here I am on the other side of that decade—my 50s—where life is so much calmer. No timelines. No hurry. Even though the randomness hasn’t stopped, it doesn’t bother me like it did before. Now I just go with the flow and easily hand over the things I can’t do on my own to God. Although slowly—which seems very slow at times—everything is coming together. They’re coming together the way they are meant to and I am finally at peace with it. Y’all, God’s timing and plans really are best.
That’s all. Just felt like writing. Thanks for reading.♥️

Good Morning!
Never stop praying or believing, because God never stops working. Believe me, everything will work out in your favor, even if it doesn’t seem like it will. Trust God. He’s got you.♥️
Love you always,
Shaun
Be mindful and intentional about how you handle your purpose. It has the potential to change the world.♥️ ~ Shaun
Good Morning!
Our road to success may seem never ending. However, we must continue moving forward as if our big break is only moments away. That’s hope.

Good Morning!☀️
Here’s today’s social media find. DO NOT GIVE UP! Success does not happen overnight. We refer to some as “overnight” successes, but in reality, they’ve been working on their craft for a while. Think about all of the social media celebrities. Most of us saw them when they first started making videos. They didn’t give up. They practiced their craft until it was so good that others wanted to share it.
If you have an idea or vision, that’s been nagging you for years, do it. Maybe all of the pieces aren’t in place, and you feel like making a move is pointless. Believe me, it’s not! Do something. Work towards it. Just don’t sit idle and one day wish you would have tried. The road to success will not be easy. DON’T GIVE UP! (This isn’t just for you, it’s for me too!☺️)
Do not give up!
Keep going!
Stumble.
Fall.
Get back up.
Keep going.
It will happen.
Sooner than later.
Smile.😊
Remain hopeful and optimistic. You’ve got this! Love you.♥️

Happy Sunday! Have you ever wanted things in your life to change, but you were reluctant to change (behaviors or environment)? Have you ever assumed you’d wake up one morning and things would be different?
Well, my answer is “yes” to both questions—plenty of times.
When I think about my life, change always began with my desire for something different. Whether it was for a better life—physically, mentally, spiritually, or financially—or a different outcome to a situation, it first began with my desire for the change. After desiring the change, my thoughts began to change, then my actions. Soon after, my life changed.

“If you want something different, you have to do something different. Change requires change.♥️”
Yes, change requires change.
Question – Are you willing to change?
Think I’ll end here. Thank you for reading! Praying you have a wonderful relaxing day.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
