My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
As I wrote two years ago, where you currently are is not where you are meant to stay. There is so much more waiting for you to see and achieve. Keep going!♥️ ~Shaun

Where you are at in this moment in time is not where you are meant to stay. Do not give up and whatever you do, please do not settle. Higher IS waiting.
This time next year, you will be in a better place in all aspects of life because you did not give up. You overcame your fears, mastered your challenges, and blocked all self-doubt. Yes, YOU!
You kept going despite the odds. Now look at you all glossed up and bossed up! I see you, and I am so very proud of you. You did not give up!♥️ ~Shaun
Singing VaShawn Mitchell’s “Turning Around For Me.”
Turning Around For Me by VaShawn Mitchell
Lyrics: Musixmatch
Sometimes discouraged but not defeated
Cast down but not destroyed
There are times I don’t understand
But I believe it’s turning around for me
I’ve had struggles and disappointments
There were times I felt so alone
Some of my friends, they let me down
But I still believe, it’s turning around for me
Around for me
Around for me
Around for me
It’s turning around for me
Around for me
Around for me
Around for me
It’s turning around for me
‘Cause I can see the breaking
I can see the breaking of day
God is making a way
A change is coming for me
If I stand strong and believe
There’s no reason to doubt
I know He’s working it out
It’s turning around for me
It won’t always be like this
He will perfect that concerning me
And sooner or later, it will turn in my favour
Sooner or later, turn in my favour
It’s turning around for me
It won’t always be like this
The Lord will perfect that concerning me
Sooner or later, turn in my favour
Sooner or later, turn in my favour
Sooner or later, turn in my favour
It’s turning around for me
It’s turning around for me
Around for me(around for me)
Around for me(around for me)
Around for me(around for me)
It’s turning around for me
Around for me
Around for me
Around for me
It’s turning around for me
Around for me
Around for me
Around for me
It’s turning around for me
It won’t always be like this
He will perfect that concerning me
Sooner or later, turn in my favour
Sooner or later, turn in my favour
Smile. Good news is on the way. I can feel it!
Be Blessed♥️

I wrote the following two years ago (January 4, 2022)–
As the years pass, I’m learning that the dream doesn’t always look like what you initially imagined. Nothing like it! My advice is to let go of whatever you had in mind and trust God to lead and guide you to where you’re supposed to be. Believe me, what He has planned is far better than anything you’ve ever imagined! Trust Him!

Whatever you have been asking for or waiting on, know that it’s already done.

“Draw Me Close To You/Thy Will Be Done,” by Marvin Winans has been playing over and over in my head since I woke up. Listen, no matter what happens, or does not happen, stay close to God. Lean into Him. Rest in Him. Stay covered. Allow Him to lead. His will will always be better than ours. He sees and knows things we do not. His foresight is so much greater than ours. Trust Him and trust His will. He’s got you. Love you!♥️ ~Shaun
Draw Me Close To You by Marvin Winans
Lyrics: Musixmatch
Draw me close to you
Never let me go
I lay it all down
You are my desire
No one else will do
No one else can take your place
Help me find my way
Bring me back to you
Thou will be done
Thou will be done
Thou will be done Lord in me
In me because
I seen you work in others
And I want you to work in me 6x
No one else can take your place
Not when I want to feel the warm glowing grace
Help me, help me find my way
Bring me. bring me back to you
Thou will be done
Thou will be done
Thou will be done LORD in me
In me because
I seen you work in others
And I want you to work in me
Hello 2024:
Please be good to us!♥️

Shared this message last year and thought it was worth sharing it again this year and every year from here on—
The new year (2024) is loading…
Stay humble.🙏🏽♥️
I can humbly say that every blessing I have is due to God. He’s the source. The only source. All credit, honor, and praise belongs to Him, not me. Amen.
Keep God first. He is the source of every blessing you have. Acknowledge Him. Honor Him. Praise Him. We must remember that as much as we would love to believe this is our world, it’s actually God’s. (Smile) Wishing you a peacefully, blessed day!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Life is interesting. It can change at the drop of a hat. The way we decide to respond sets the course for all subsequent events.
Had one thing planned for the day, then one text set things in a different direction. My first thought was to try to find other solutions, then I heard “Don’t fight it, just go with the flow.” Nothing was stopping me from doing so. Nothing. Instead of trying to figure out how I would reschedule things, I decided to let things be.
Forget the plan. Don’t fight against where God is taking you. He’s in control. Allow Him to lead.♥️ ~Shaun
First, let me start off by saying God is so Good. Y’all, I needed that visit with my bestie, Shawn, yesterday.
Moment of transparency…
After my mom passed, I began feeling isolated from everyone and everything (still do at times). It was like I began seeing people and things for who/what they were, and decided I no longer wanted or needed to participate in the shenanigans just to feel included (personally and professionally). Basically, the only ones who mattered were my babies. They were the only ones besides my tiny circle (cause family was iffy) who I could count on to remain the same. I am pretty sure most of what I was feeling was grief, but not all.
Anyway, I needed to see Shawn, even if it was only for several hours. Y’all, we laughed and laughed. Like I said, I needed her visit. One thing I can say about our friendship is we don’t let what’s going on around us affect our relationship, never have. Rarely do we waste our conversations on negative things. Life is just too short and too precious to focus on the negative. Which leads me to the topic of this post—my newest chapter.
A few days ago, I hit the midpoint or peak of Year50. Instead of waiting until 2024 or Year51 to start a new chapter, I have decided to start it now. I mean, I am the writer, right? (Laughing) However, with this being said, I must remember God is the editor-in-chief and has the final say. Yeah…I cannot forget this part. Listen, sometimes he throws in more plot twists than my fav and have me all over the place (laughing), but I trust Him. He knows what he is doing. So, welcome to my newest chapter, “The Next Six Months.”
Y’all, it seems like I have a Facebook memory for every occasion. As I said, God is the editor-in-chief, and I guess you can say I am living out the edited version of what has already been written. Here is what I shared two years ago.
Facebook Memory: December 29, 2021
Your next chapter will be AMAZING! Receive it. Speak it – “My next chapter will be AMAZING!” Own it!
That’s all I have for you for now. Listen, you do not have to wait until the new year or a special occasion to start your next chapter. You can always start today. You control the pen. Feel free to end this chapter now and start the next one. But, beware, God does have the final say, and He just might throw in a few unexpected things (those plot twists) to keep life interesting. I mean, who likes boring. Okay…sometimes boring is good. Smile
Have a blessed day!♥️
Shaun
