My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
Perspective: a particular attitude towards or a way of regarding something: a point of view
Perspectives change. They are not set in stone. The way we viewed things last year, ten years, or even two days ago, can change. Y’all, it is very possible to wake up one morning and see things completely differently. Yes, it is actually possible to have a whole new outlook on life.
Love you,
Shaun
You keep asking God for signs, for confirmation. But, you already have the answer. God gave you the answer a while ago. Now, it is up to you whether or not you accept the answer and act on it. Meaning, God has done His job now the ball is in your court.♥️ ~Shaun
Sharing two memories today. The first is an image I used when I updated my cover photo on May 19, 2023; and the second is the Facebook memory I shared on May 19, 2022. Both seem to compliment each other. Going to share the oldest first.
Facebook Memory: May 19, 2022
Forever in awe of the power of manifestation. Don’t just think it. Write it down. Verbalize it. See it. Feel it. Walk in it. If you want it, manifest it!
I have discovered from looking back over my life, as well as watching God work in other people’s lives, timing is everything. Manifest it and when it’s time, it will happen. And you won’t even see it coming.

Didn’t really know what to share today. Honestly, I didn’t feel too much like writing nor sharing a Facebook memory. After reading my journal entry from last year, I decided I would share an excerpt from it. This was after my mom had passed and I was thinking about my life going forward. I was thinking about opportunities I had missed and/or felt I was unworthy or unqualified to take. Here’s what I wrote:
Shaun’s Journal Entry: May 18, 2023
One of the scriptures [Matthew 10:9] does reference not taking anything with you but totally and completely depending on God. Heard this [in my spirit] as I was subscribing to the UN career pages. In my mind I kept thinking I needed more experience and needed to make my trip to Geneva happen, all while I kept hearing to leave it in God’s hands. A little while later, I began thinking about Momma and her dreams. I began feeling like maybe God didn’t believe she was worthy enough for good things and perhaps He felt the same about me. This really made me sad and think that if I wanted it, I would just have to take it. Meaning, I was going to once again override God because I felt he cared less about my dreams than He did others. During this time, I also started hearing how Momma had opportunities that she did not take. Her life could have been better but she chose differently. So it wasn’t that God did not believe she was worthy… just heard, SHE did not believe she was worthy. Whew!!!
“Whew!!!” was right! What a revelation because I did not believe I was worthy either. I believed that some opportunities were only meant for people who clearly fit the role. I was and am only someone with a dream who is trusting God while trying to navigate to where I want to be. I keep getting opportunities, but will they get me to my dreams? Hmmm… A question only God can answer.
So, this graphic was also included in the entry. Not sure who originally posted it or where I got it.
Well, I guess I was/am being redirected to something better. As always, my job is to allow God to lead while I trust, obey, and follow. I must continue to believe that my dreams will be fulfilled. I have to believe.
Last night I received an email from a United Nations (UN) careers page I had registered with. Probably the same one I had mentioned in my entry. Unfortunately, I was not able to register for the opportunity I would have liked to have participated in because it had already passed. So, I’m not sure if me receiving the email was just a sign that I am still on the right path or encouragement to not give up on my dreams (because this was the first email I had received in months). Either way, it was a much needed reminder that God hasn’t forgotten about me, and that I am worthy to be there and worthy of all my other dreams as well.
Anyhoo, I think this is it for today. It’s still raining. Think I will do what I wanted to do yesterday, lay around and watch old murder/mystery shows. However, if the sun chooses to shine, I am getting out of this house! Praying you have a lovely day.♥️

When was the last time you were still long enough to hear God’s voice?
Facebook Memory: May 14, 2022
STOP
Listen
What do you hear?
Sometimes I find myself moving a mile a minute – busy with this, thinking about that, trying to figure things out on my own. Then, after I’m good and frustrated, I hear, “STOP. Listen.” Ha! That’s when I hear God’s voice.
Thanks for reading. Enjoy your day!♥️

If more kindness, love, light, peace, humility, compassion, empathy, hope and so forth is what I seek, I must be intentional about putting it into the atmosphere. I have to do more to make sure it is seen and shared, whether I am the one creating the content or sharing someone else’s. I know I won’t always get it right. However, I am willing to try. I refuse to believe there are more bad things happening in the world than good. The good just are not being highlighted enough.
Here is a quote from another fav of mine, President Barack Obama.
Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.
President Barack Obama
I have to be intentional about promoting the change I am seeking.
Wishing you a lovely week!♥️
Be Blessed,
Shaun
