Hello Sunday

It’s almost 1:30 AM my time. Since it is Sunday, I may as well post my blog. Here are a couple of Facebook memories I thought were worth sharing.

Facebook Memory: July 16, 2022

No matter what, keep showing up. Trust God’s plan.

The next memory fits perfectly with the memory above.

Facebook Memory: July 16, 2017

I believe this to be true. What are you ready for?

Been listening to Pandora for the last few hours while working on something. Here’s what’s currently playing.

Can’t believe Jesse is no longer with us. “You” is such a beautiful song. And Gerald Albright playing the sax is EVERYTHING! Y’all, I love music.♥️

I’ll leave you with what’s playing now.

Good Night

There’s no other like Luther. I can listen to him for hours.♥️

It’s Five Years Later: So Where Am I? … Actually Four (Revised)

UPDATE: I was so excited when I found this memory that I couldn’t count. Laughing. However, this makes everything that is currently happening in my life even more interesting. Becoming emotional as I think about it. Can’t wait to share!♥️

HA! Can’t believe it’s been five four years already!

Well, had to refer to my journal to see what I had written on July 14, 2019, and here is what I wrote:

“Be intentional about time, talent and friends.”

That was it.

So where am I today according to the quote above?

Time–I am becoming better with managing my time. Sadly, it is a constant struggle.

Talent–I am so proud of myself for tapping into my talents. I’m finally using them.

Friends–Some have come and some have gone, and I am at peace with the way things are going.

So how am I doing according to Bishop’s actual quote below? Keep reading…

“Be intentional. Where do you see yourself in 5 years, and how do you plan to get there?”

Journal Entry: May 22, 2019 (Goals were written and revised prior to Bishop’s sermon.)

Here are my current goals written on February 2, 2019. Over the next couple of years, I need to make sure my endeavors align with these goals. Everything I do at work has to provide skills for my professional and entrepreneurial careers.

Overarching Goals:

  • Make global connections.
  • Support efforts that promote and support healthy, sustainable communities.
  • Spread hope.
  • Promote safe places and spaces [for marginalized groups].

I included details on how I would accomplish each goal, and so far I am right on track. I know at times it may seem like I am all over the place, and sometimes I am (I just love life), but I do know where I’m going. This morning I stepped up my game and took another leap. Will share later. Want to see where it goes first.

Thanks for reading! Hope you have a wonderful weekend.♥️

Remain Optimistic

Good things do happen.

Dreams do come true.

It is possible to love and be loved unconditionally.

Beauty can be found in even the darkest moments.

Do not allow anyone to convince you otherwise.

Keep hope alive by remaining optimistic.♥️ ~Shaun

Living From a Space and Place of Love & Gratitude

Sitting here watching Oprah’s Super Soul Sunday interview with Maya Angelou. I have only seen snippets of it before. Now I’m watching the entire episode. Y’all, I feel her. Gratitude and love are EVERYTHING! If you have not watched it, here’s the link. It is so worth watching– Maya Angelou Super Soul Sunday Interview.

Loving life. Loving the place I’m in. Living from a space of gratitude and love. Staying present while residing in peace.

This is my world, this is my life…

Speak Life

Happy Tuesday!

Woke up with the song, “Be Encouraged,” playing over and over in my head. Not long afterwards, I checked my Facebook memories and low and behold look at what popped up!

Be encouraged. Know that your labor is not in vain. Amen

Kept scrolling through my memories and found another gem from July 11, 2017. I immediately began singing Donald Lawrence’s song, “I Speak Life.”

Speak life and favor over your life.♥️

Thanks for dropping in to see what I had to say today. I so appreciate you! Enjoy your day.♥️

Facebook Memories From July 8

Hello!

Confession… Before writing this particular blog, I had written another one. Right in the middle of writing, I heard that that particular message was only for me and not to share it at this time. I am learning that the enemy will often use your own words as fuel to attack you. Listening and learning.

On another note, here are a few memories from July 8th. I had so many memories I wanted to share but will only share a few. Will begin with last year’s and work my way back.

Facebook Memory: July 8, 2022

In case you forgot–YOU are enough.♥️

Yes… YOU are enough.♥️

Facebook Memory: July 8, 2021

I Am Being Groomed

Facebook Memory: July 8, 2021

This was in response to a post someone else made–

THIS!! Most people won’t understand. I’m learning more and more that sometimes you just have to be quiet. God’s really been working with me about over sharing. I want to tell EVERYTHING! “Guess what God showed me!” Umm… be quiet Shaun. Lol. I’m so grateful for God’s love and patience. I’m learning.

I still want to tell EVERYTHING! However, I know that I can’t. There are things I must keep sacred.

Facebook Memory: July 8, 2019

Yessss!! Repost from Tyler Perry Studios

Facebook Memory: July 8, 2019

The vision WILL come to fruition. I am already there.

I am going to end with a quote from a video I saw earlier today. It’s by track star Sha’Carri Richardson–

I’m here to stay. I’m not back, I’m better!

Sha’Carri Richardson after gaining the title for the women’s 100 meter race.

Yes, I am here to stay and I’m better. As I keep saying, this side of 50 is already different. God is good.

That’s all I have for you today. I pray you have a fantastic weekend. Love you!♥️
