Becoming ME

A couple of months ago, fellow blogger Wynne Leon (Surprised by Joy) shared the following quote of questions—

“Did I offer peace today? Did I bring a smile to someone’s face? Did I say words of healing? Did I let go of my anger and resentment? Did I forgive? Did I love? These are the real questions.” – Henri Nouwen

On that day, I saved it in my notes and have asked myself these questions almost daily. They help me stay aligned with my values, vision, purpose, and legacy. As I move through life, I want to become everything I want to see in the world. I want to become that harmony that I’m seeking. Maybe I sound a bit delusional or naive, but I believe I can become everything I set out to be. Charge it to the little girl within me who dreamed of a world filled with love, peace, joy, and kindness.😌

I’m becoming ME.

This side of 50 is definitely different, and I’m loving the space I’m in. God is good.

Connected

We are all connected. What affects one affects all.

It would be easy to say that from now on I’m only out for my own, but what would that benefit me in the long run? It might feel good for a moment; however, when thinking long term, it could be detrimental. I have seen the damage this mentality has had on families and communities, and it’s quite sad to see.

Y’all, we are not on an island alone. We are part of something much greater. Every move we make has a ripple effect. It sets things in motion. Every act of love and every act of hate affects someone, which in turn affects someone else. We must be mindful of how we move. Listen, you better believe God has already checked me.🤷🏽‍♀️😅

My mission is to continue moving in love, peace, and kindness as I push for progress. I know that one day I will see the harmony I envisioned.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

**Not letting up on what I believe in. If anything, I’m pushing harder. We must continue the fight for our freedoms, inclusiveness, democracy, and peace—for humanity.

Celebrating One Year of Inspirations

Happy 1 year anniversary to #ShaunsDailyInspiration!🎉🌟🎉

Earlier this year, I decided to create my own artwork to accompany my quotes, and I’m so happy I did. Y’all, the entire experience is where I feel most at peace. It’s also my quiet time with God. Yep.. It’s my happy place. Smiling

Before I end, I just want to thank God for allowing me to find a niche that I look forward to doing daily. Y’all, I wake up ready to create and inspire. One of my lifelong aspirations has always been to spread love, peace and hope throughout the world. To this day, I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing still inspires me to remain hopeful that one day the world will sing in perfect harmony, even if it’s only for a moment. Hopefully, Shaun’s Daily Inspiration will contribute to making this happen. Hopeful

Y’all, God is good! Be Blessed.♥️ ~ Shaun
