Happened to look down at my phone at the right moment. Love the 3s!
Feels so good to know I’m God’s child.♥️

Woke Up Like This
I decided to go check out what I was doing the day I shared the quote above (March 15, 2021), and now I’m bawling. I began my journal entry with this—
“Today’s Monday. I turned in my letter of resignation on Friday.”
Y’all, I had just taken one of the biggest leaps of my life, and that was to bet on me!!!
I am so proud of myself for taking that leap. I had no idea what life would be like afterwards. I just heard God say it was time, and I moved. Whew!!
I didn’t expect to find all this when I searched my photos for the image above. I just kept hearing, “I woke up like this.” Who knew one image could hold so much meaning. That entire journal entry has me in tears. I did that!! Now, here I am, almost four years later, still doing what I love. Y’all, that was one of the best decisions I ever made, and I did it unafraid. I had absolutely no clue what was to come, and I was completely at peace when I did it, not one ounce of fear or anxiety. That’s how I knew God was in it.
When I tell you God is sooooooo amazing!! So amazing!
Yes, I woke up like this…BLESSED!
Thank you for reading. I pray you woke up feeling the same—Blessed.♥️
Love you,
Shaun

Be Obedient
Good Morning!☀️
A few months ago, I was given a specific date to take another leap into the unknown. As time crept closer to me taking that leap, I kept playing around with the date until one day when I heard loud and clear, “That’s the date.” I was like, “Okay, I hear You, God,” and did what was asked. I was told that delaying what was asked of me would delay what He was trying to do for me. I took the leap even though I didn’t know and still don’t know how things will work out. I’m not sure what He has in store, but the atmosphere did change as soon as I leaped. Honestly, it changed when I decided to be obedient, which was before I actually leaped.
Be obedient and take the leap! As Pastor Joel Osteen said nine years ago, God will not ask you to give up something without giving you something better in return.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Thoughts From December 10, 2018
Good Morning☀️
On December 10, 2018, I ended my night with the following thoughts.
Shaun’s Journal Entry: December 10, 2018
- Things can happen unexpectedly so expect the unexpected.
- God is still working.
- I’m going to have bad days. I have to keep pressing on.
- No..the crying isn’t over but things will get better.
- Again, God is working.
God is always working. Keep pressing on.♥️
Love you always,
Shaun
In Case You Forgot
You only need God’s approval. Seek His approval, and His approval only, and everything else will fall into place. He’s got you.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
The World Needs You
Please keep showing up. I know sometimes it’s easier said than done because, on some days, it’s hard showing up for yourself. But please, keep showing up. The world needs you.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Trust
Good Morning☀️
Over the years, I have written about my thoughts on trust. Although I easily connect with people, that connection doesn’t automatically come with trust. My trust has to be earned, even from those closest to me. It’s not something I hand out freely. I can love you all day because I truly do love people, but my love doesn’t translate into trust. As I mentioned six years ago, trust is very fragile. Once it is broken, it’s hard to repair if it’s ever repaired.
Questions–
What are your thoughts on trust?
Do you believe trust has to be earned?
Have you ever restored trust in someone?
Well, that’s all for now. I pray you have a lovely week. Remember to put God first, and if you can’t trust anyone else, you can always, always, always trust God.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
The Journey Continues
Good Morning☀️
Be careful not to let your current situation stop you from pursuing your dreams. This is only one small part of your story. As long as you are living, your story continues, and life goes on.
–Facebook Memory: December 7, 2023
Where you are today is not final. Life does go on.
From several events that happened over the past few days, even to over a week ago, to reading my first blog and celebrating my niece’s graduation yesterday, life does go on. Where we are today is not where we are meant to stay. As long as there’s breath in our bodies we will keep moving.
As I mentioned in a previous blog, I was recently reconnected with someone I wanted to work on a project with ten years ago. Unfortunately, that project never happened. I told my daughter how I wanted to do that project so badly, but nothing ever worked out. I just kept getting the runaround. So, to reconnect ten years later had me wondering why. Why, now? I told her I felt like I had taken a ten-year detour, and now I’m finally back on track. It’s the same with reading my first blog post. There were so many things I had mentioned in that post that never panned out. However, seeing what I had written was like a greeting from God saying, “Welcome back, Shaun!”
Remember, where you are today isn’t where you are meant to stay. So much has happened over the past ten years, so many lessons and experiences—not all good and not all bad. As they say, nothing is ever wasted. Everything was preparing me for this moment and my future.
Thank you for reading. Thank you for being part of my journey. I pray you have a wonderful day!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
