Release It Into The Universe

Here’s a thought that I am so feeling at the moment—

Release whatever you desire from the universe into the universe. If love is what you desire, release love. If kindness, peace, and joy are what you desire, release them. Release them without conditions or expectations, and you’ll surely receive them back.♥️ ~Shaun

Blessed.

I’m Living!

Good Morning! Five years ago, I asked myself if I was living or just existing. It’s one of my favorite lines from my fav’s movie, “The Family That Preys.” Back then, I had to really think about it. Honestly, I couldn’t fully say that I was. Well, today, that answer is “Baby, yes! I am definitely living!” As I have said so many times before, I am absolutely loving this side of 50! Y’all, it’s the best!♥️ ~Shaun

Here’s what else I found among my memories, pictures from my first BBD concert. I recently wrote about the tickets I won the day before my birthday in 2014. However, what I didn’t include—which I included in the book I wrote that morning but nixed at the last minute—was that I actually saw them in concert five years before and I spoke to Michael Bivins. And guess what?! He spoke back!!! AHHHHHH!!!😂😂😂😂😂 Y’all, I absolutely love my life!

I screenshot it so the date would remain.☺️ Isn’t it cool!!

Smiles

I’ve seen so many genuine smiles this week (I know, it’s only Tuesday). I have also felt so much love and joy. This is a happy week. Wish we could reside here forever.

Praying you have a restful night.

Smile.♥️

Guard Your Heart

Good Morning! Six years ago, I wrote, “When the heart hurts, life seems to stop.” Not sure why I felt this so deeply. Again, when the heart hurts, life seems to stop. You continue to move forward but something inside of you stops flourishing. Yeah…that’s deep.

Proverbs 4:23 says— “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.”

Everything we do flows from our hearts.

A few days ago, I wrote, “Protect your heart but let love in.” Although difficult, I believe it’s possible to do both when we place our hearts in God’s hands. Of course heartbreak will hurt, and life in some capacity will stop flourishing, but God has a way of soothing us until we heal and begin to flourish again. I truly believe this. We must believe this or life will stop.

Here’s the entire post from six years ago.

Facebook Memory: August 14, 2018

“Guard your heart. When the heart hurts, life seems to stop. I’ve found the best way to guard your heart is to put it in God’s hands. Disappointments will come; however, God has a way of making everything better. His love is so soothing. That’s why I love my God.

The entire scripture reads, “Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.”- NIV”

Remember, everything we do flows from our heart—both good and bad, whether intentional or not. Guard your heart.♥️

Love you,

Wait With Expectancy

2024

Hello!

For the last two years, I have shared the same message—“Expect great things to happen.” Today, the message is still the same.

Facebook Posts (captions only):

2022/2023

August 8, 2022

How are you waiting? With or without expectation? You know, “Whatever happens, happens,” OR “I’m expecting exceedingly abundantly above all that I ask or think.”

Me. I’m doing the latter. I’m EXPECTING great things to happen!💃🏽♥️

Today’s 8/8. New day. New week. New beginnings.🌸

August 8, 2023

While you are waiting, expect to receive. Expect to receive what you are waiting for.♥️ 8.8 New Beginnings

That’s all for now. Wishing you a wonderful day!♥️

Feeling Free

Welcome back!

♥️

Y’all, there is no greater feeling than the freedom to be. The freedom to just be me.

Thinking about how I woke up this morning and shared my random song. That was me just being me. Me loving life without feeling awkward or wondering what others would think or say.

This wasn’t always the case.

When I tell you I am so in awe of how my life has changed. One thought/request for this side of 50 to be different and it happened.

God is so amazing.

Loving the freedom to just be me.♥️

Life

THE Source

While we are so focused on what this or that leader will or will not do, God is trying to get our attention. Y’all, He’s our Source, not them. We must stay focused on Him. Whatever comes or goes, it’s God’s presence, love, peace, and provisions that will sustain us. He is the ultimate provider and miracle worker.♥️ ~ Shaun

Remember, God is love. Complete love. Not selective or conditional love.

Keep Hope Alive

There isn’t too much to add to last year’s Facebook memory. Just remain optimistic. Good things do happen, and dreams do come true. Love you!♥️ ~Shaun

Facebook Memory: July 13, 2023

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.♥️

True Happiness

True happiness comes from within.

You can’t find true happiness in things or people, and you surely cannot buy it. Believe me, I have tried before only to end up in the same state—feeling sad, depressed, unloved—after the excitement was over. No, true happiness is God-given and comes from within.♥️

Facebook Memory: July 10, 2023

True happiness comes from within. Wishing you much happiness and peace.♥️

Wishing you true happiness.


On another note, earlier this morning I watched Jay Shetty’s podcast with philanthropist, Melinda French Gates. It was a conversation I was already interested in hearing. However, I did not know it would end up being one I needed to hear. Yes, needed to hear. I can’t say it enough, I just love how God loves me. He always sends the right messages at the absolute right time. Always.

Here’s the link, if you are interested: Jay Shetty with Melinda French Gates.

Praying you’re having a wonderful day this far.♥️

Take Care,

Shaun
