Smiling From Ear To Ear

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️

This morning I am smiling from ear to ear! Can’t you hear Beyoncé singing “Love On Top”? Well, I surely can. (Smile.)

Well… I’m not smiling because I finally got a man or won the lottery. Lol! Nope. I’m smiling because…….

Beyoncé won a Grammy for ALBUM OF THE YEAR!!!🌟🌟🌟

Aaaahhhhh!!!

Y’all, I can’t stop smiling!

Listen, this makes today’s Facebook memory even more special.

His timing is PERFECT!

Talk about beautiful. She waited patiently—for years. YEARS!!!

I am soooo happy for her!

Yesterday started off rough but ended up being a great day, and I intend to carry that same energy into today.

God is so good. I’m so very thankful He loves me.🙏🏽

I pray you have a wonderful day and a fabulously blessed week!♥️

Love you always,

Shaun

Good Trouble

Shaun Bradford

In February 2016, I was in Washington, D.C., visiting Mississippi’s U.S. senators and representatives, and literally bumped into the late and great Honorable John Lewis as he was coming out of his office. It was one of those surprise meetings I will always cherish. We could use some “good trouble” right now.♥️ ~Shaun

Hello Sunday

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️

The last few months have been an emotional roller coaster ride for me. However, these last two weeks have really done a number on me! Just being honest and transparent. Imagine spending your entire life picturing a future world where kindness, peace, love, inclusion, equity, and goodwill towards all humanity was the norm to… whatever this is. Y’all, I don’t even know what to call it. It’s like going from envisioning somewhat of a utopian world—if you know me, then you know I wanted the world singing in “perfect harmony” (smile)—to seeing a dystopian society being created right before my eyes.

This isn’t a movie. It’s real. So very real. Those hurting aren’t fictional characters. They are real people. Real people (not only “DEI” hires) are losing or in fear of losing their jobs. Real people—not only criminals but children and mothers—are being detained and deported without an ounce of empathy. Marginalized people who have spent their lives overcoming discrimination are being treated like they’re “second–class citizens.” Whew! Talk about triggering!! Then, to make matters even worse, access to vital information is being denied and/or erased. Again, this isn’t a movie, “fake news,” or “woke news.” This is actually happening!

I digress… (long sigh)

I know for my own sanity, I must let go of things I cannot change… at the moment. I know that I can’t help others if I’m not physically, mentally, or emotionally strong enough and prepared to do so. But y’all, I am so serious right now, my heart is breaking.💔

I found this among inspirational messages I have saved. A much needed word for today.🙏🏽

Thanks for allowing me to share. I know God’s in control. I pray you have a wonderful Sunday.♥️

Love you always,

Shaun
