In case you forgot, you are God’s child. Yes, YOU! Which means you are royalty.
Embrace it.
Own it.
Walk in it.
It’s who you are.
Love you!♥️

Life happens. Go with the flow.
Hello Sunday
Good Morning! Hope your weekend is going well. As you can see, I am posting a little late this morning. I mistakenly scheduled this post to be published at 10:30 AM instead of 4:30 AM. Let’s just say yesterday was a very long day and me posting late is the perfect set up for the following message.
Beauty can be found in every aspect of life. Even a late post.😊
A lot has happened since I shared this image eleven years ago—good and bad. I’m so glad I was able to find bits and pieces of beauty during both times, especially the difficult ones. Honestly, I would not be where I am or who I am today had I not found them. I am forever grateful.
Life is beautiful…truly beautiful.
Praying you have a beautiful day.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Nothing Wasted
Nothing that you have gone through or are currently going through will be wasted. NOTHING! Not one thing!! How wonderful is that!
Here’s a word from my cousin, Joy. I pray it blesses you as much as it’s blessed me. Love you.♥️ ~Shaun
Everyone Can’t Handle Your Truth
This is so true. Everyone cannot handle our truths. It took me a very long time to realize this—basically, a lifetime. For years I believed people wanted to know the authentic version of me. I thought I could be free and open with people who seemed to like me. It took many heartbreaks and letdowns to learn that most people didn’t want to know the real me, they only wanted to interact with and know the version they could tolerate (not accept). This is why I only have a handful of close friends, and my closest get to experience all of me.
In one of my very first blog posts (June 2018) I wrote—
“It’s not easy being transparent in a world that glorifies what’s fake and shuns reality. Reality isn’t pretty. Reality shows vulnerability– the bumps, bruises and scars.”
This blog site, “It’s Shaun’s World,” was originally created to be a space where I could be authentic and transparent. I really wanted to share my world with others. However, over the years I learned to tone it down and only release bits and pieces of me in small doses. Not everyone likes happiness. Some don’t like quirkiness. And many don’t like when people share their vulnerabilities with the world. Those are things I guess are supposed be kept private or only shared with friends or a therapist. I believed people wanted to know the human side of people—because that’s what I want to get to know, the real—when in reality they only want a character.
Anyhoo… I could go on and on. Here’s what I shared two years ago.

“Being transparent has its limits. Our lives were never meant to be an open book for all to read. Knowing when, what and with whom to share is vital. Everyone can’t handle your truth.♥️”
Yes, unlike in 2018, I now know this is true. Everyone can’t handle my truth—which is the reason I sometimes write posts that I never share—even when they’re my true experiences. Not everyone would or could understand, and that’s okay.
Well, that’s my truth for now. I pray you have a lovely Friday and beautifully, blessed weekend. Love you!♥️

Stop And Breathe
Not only did I have to remind myself to stop and breathe yesterday, but I had to do it just now. As I said in the memory below, the world is not going to fall apart while I take a few moments for myself. I’ll get back to everything in a few.♥️ ~Shaun

“Sometimes you have to stop and rest. Believe me, the world is not going to fall apart because you decide to take a moment for yourself. Remember, you cannot serve or give if you’re depleted.🪫”
God Is The Joy And The Strength Of My Life
Good Morning!

“I can hear James Cleveland’s choir singing:
‘God is the joy and the strength of my life. He removes all pain, misery and strife. He promised to keep me. Never to leave me. He’ll never ever fall short of His word… God is my all and all.’ Amen”
Yes, God is my all and all. Praying you have a blessed day.♥️
Love you,
