As I suggested two years ago, we trust our instincts to protect us from harm but rarely use them to guide us toward good things. How about we consider reconditioning our mindset to expect good things to happen instead of bad or expecting the best of people instead of the worst?
Trust your instincts to expect and accept good things.♥️
I tend to give people a lot of grace because I know people be peopleing (yeah, I know it’s not a word—I’m peopleing. Smile). You never know if someone is having a bad day so they come off as rude or unapproachable; or maybe that’s just their demeanor, but they are still good people. Listen, I have relatives who will cuss you out and love on you in the same breath. I also have some that will treat you like you’re the best thing walking and tear you down when you’re out of sight. Yes, I have seen it all.They just be peopleing. (Smile) So, for me, first impressions don’t really mean anything. It’s a person’s actions and character the majority of the time that shows me who they truly are. People can hide who they are some of the time but not all the time.
If you’re not privy to someone’s daily life, trust your instincts. Do not keep overriding them. If something does not feel right, it’s probably not right. If something seems off, it probably is. Stay covered. Believe me, when you stay covered, God will keep you protected.
And yes, this message is definitely for me too. I tend to extend too much grace. For some reason, I believe there is good in everyone. It just baffles me that some people intentionally set out to use, misuse, abuse and hurt others. Just writing this seems unreal. Thankful for God’s protection.
Hopefully this wasn’t too dark. Didn’t mean for it to be. Praying you have a wonderful Sunday and fabulous week. And remember to be kind. I really wish there was a way we could add more kindness to the world.
Love you!♥️

Trust your gut; and always, always, ALWAYS, trust God. Do not override your feelings.
How about we change the narrative about instincts; beginning with trusting our instincts to lead us to good things, and not only protect us from the bad. Let’s trust the positive vibes we feel. Trust that those vibes are pure and true. There’s not always a catch to another’s intentions. When it feels right, let’s believe that it could possibly be right.♥️ ~Shaun
How many times do you second guess yourself before making a good decision? You KNOW it’s good, yet you stall. It’s funny how we easily trust our instincts to protect us from harm, but rarely trust them to accept/receive something good, something positive. Let’s change this! Moving forward we will not second guess what we KNOW is right.♥️ ~ Shaun
