Great reminder! Everything you could possibly need to live the life you have always dreamed is already inside of you. As I stated two years ago, start with what you have and God will provide the rest. The secret is patience. Be patient with yourself and the process. Also, don’t miss the beauty of what’s happening now by being so focused on the end results. Embrace the journey and enjoy the ride. All great things take time. Love you!♥️ ~Shaun

Did you know that you already have everything you need to create the life you long for? It’s true! Everything you need is already inside of you. God made sure of that! All you have to do is start with what you have and God will provide the rest.
Keep creating, improving, and evolving. The life you dreamed is already happening.
Went back to read what I had written on my birthday and happened to read what I had written the day before, exactly one year ago. You see, when I shared my first post for today, both quotes were from my Facebook memories. I had decided not to share the captions because I wasn’t really feeling them. Well, little did I remember, I had already shared one of the captions before. Smiling. Here’s what I wrote last year.
“Not going to wait until next year when the Facebook post I shared today pops up as a Facebook memory. Nah… it has to be shared NOW, before Year 50.
My words of affirmation…
Listen Listen LISTEN
Out of BILLIONS, YOU were handpicked to fulfill a purpose that only YOU can fulfill. Do not for one minute think your life has no meaning or you are not worthy of the dreams God placed in your heart. You are different for a reason. You were chosen for this. Not them, but YOU!
Walk in your purpose with confidence! Own it!!!
#Year50 is TOMORROW!!! It’s not what’s happening on the outside. It’s ALL about what’s happening on the inside. Whew!!!
Y’all already know I was pretty emotional when I wrote this. I am so serious and intentional about this next leg of my journey. God has been too good to me for me to keep suppressing His gifts. He made me like I am for a reason. I am Shaun and there is absolutely no other like me. I am one of one, for real.
Blessed!”
In tears. I love me some ME. For real. I am absolutely, without a doubt, one of a kind. Year50 showed me this. There is no one like me. Not at all.
When I tell you I am loving this side of 50!!! I am beyond grateful for the experiences, lessons and blessings of this past year. Never knew I needed them. However, God did! Before this day ends, and I enter another year, I would like to thank God for loving me. For holding my life, heart, and soul in His hands. For His covering and protection. For His mercy and grace. For His gentleness. For showing me, Me. When I tell you I am truly blessed, I mean it.
What a Jubilee Year!!! I made it!!!🎉🎉🎉
Year51 is loading… The other side of 50 is officially here!♥️
Nothing and/or No One can stop God’s plan for your life. Nope. Not at all. Everything will work out in your favor, even those things that seem impossible. Now, breathe and trust God. He’s got you.
Sometimes we stay in spaces to save face. You know, we think the embarrassment of leaving is worse than the consequences of staying. Other times we stay out of fear, or because we believe we have already stayed too long and there’s nothing left to do or give. Whichever the case may be, when we know it’s time to move on, we need to move on. We cannot waste anymore time in spaces where we were never meant to stay. Let’s learn the lessons. Accept the blessings. Then move on. God has more in store for us. However, we will never receive them if we do not move.
Comfort blocks blessings.
I pray you’re having a wonderful day thus far. Remember, God’s got you. You will not fail.♥️
Remember to stay in control of the pen. Your life is your story, and you control the narrative. While you may not be able to control everything around you, you do have control over how you react or respond in different situations. This, in turn, lends to the outcome of your story. So, write your story, and make it good. Oh… and start over as many times as you please. Remember, it’s your story. Also, be sure to write the truth because lies will only limit the impact of wonderful experiences.❤️
Love you,
Shaun

Who knows you better than yourself? No one. You are the only one, besides God, who truly knows what you desire from life. So write your story. Feel free to revise as you evolve. Remember, it’s YOUR story.
A few years ago, I posed this question—“What do you want?”. Smiling as I think about it. Of course, all kinds of things popped into my head when I thought of the things I wanted. However, what I really, truly wanted weren’t things at all, it was peace. Peace within.
Well, I’m so happy to report that I found the peace I was searching for. Listen, all kinds of craziness can be happening around me and I always find myself at peace. Now, it doesn’t always happen instantaneously. Sometimes I find myself wanting to join the chaos or allow things to linger; however, God has a way of easing the peace in. Y’all, He is so smooth. I just love the way He loves me. Favored & Blessed
Here’s today’s Facebook memory.
Facebook Memory: June 12, 2021
What do you want? Simple question, yet not always easy to answer. Most of the time when we’re asked this question we respond based on our desires at that particular moment or where we are in life. Quick and easy answers will suffice in the moment; however, deep down we know there’s so much more. When was the last time you asked yourself what is it that truly want out of life?
I planned for peace. I sought it out, and God gave it to me.
Of course, I want more than peace. However, what I am beginning to see is the peace I asked for is opening doors and making room for other things I desire. Honestly, I am just letting God do His thing and bless me as He sees fit. He knows best, and His blessings are above anything I could have ever imagined or dreamed.
Last night, my son asked if this is where I pictured myself at 50. And my response was, I never even imagined 50 (from an adolescent/young adult standpoint). I had no idea I would experience life the way I have. Yesterday, I attended an event for women veterans. At even 18, I never imagined I would join the military. Had no clue I would have my first child a few years later. Didn’t know I would live in Germany or Turkey. I mean, soooo much has happened since then. So, making it to age 50 is such a wonderful blessing and feeling. I have a home. I’m healthy. My kids are healthy, and they are thriving adults. And…I am finally living in the peace I asked for.
Side note: I keep stressing the peace part because I used to let things bother me. Like really bother me. I was what people referred to as a “worrier.” Felt like if I wasn’t worried about something then I wasn’t living or I didn’t care. Oh, how life has changed. I am so loving this space I’m in, and loving life over 50.
Well, I think this is it for today unless I decide to add something later. Also, I don’t believe I sent you well wishes today. So I am doing it now. I pray your day is exceptionally beautiful.♥️
It’s Shaun’s World
