My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
I agree with the author of the quote above. Not only do the things you whisper to yourself—especially when you are alone—have the greatest impact on your life, but they also influence how you move and embrace your authenticity. Be mindful of what you whisper to yourself. Make sure your whispers are always loving, kind, uplifting, and encouraging. In case you forgot, you deserve love from YOU, too.♥️
I love you much,
Shaun
I woke up again with the song “Conquerors” on repeat in my head. I listened to it a few times yesterday, and I guess I need to do the same today. In case I’m not the only one who needs to hear it, here’s the link to the song.
“Conquerors,” by Kirk Franklin & The Family
Head up. Shoulders back. Stand tall. You are more than a conqueror. You are God’s child!♥️
I love you,
Shaun
Happy Sunday☀️
How are you?
From the depths of my heart, I hope you’re well.🌺
I pray you have a wonderfully blessed Sunday filled with love, peace, and joy. May you remain hopeful that one day, we will live in a brighter, more beautiful, and kinder world. Continue to keep God first. Allow Him to direct your steps and guide you daily. Lastly, please take care of yourself. Your presence in this world is invaluable.♥️
I love you always,
Shaun
This is how God works in my life! When I tell you He loves me!🥰
Short story…
Last night, in my post, “Service Before Self,” I wrote—
“I miss that life [Air Force life]. I miss the camaraderie. We were more than coworkers and colleagues. We were family.”
I ended it with—
“I believe I need to visit an Air Force base soon. I need to see my people.”
Fast forward to God hearing and delivering!
Below is a reply from my friend, who happens to be a retired Air Force Lt. Colonel. Notice the time stamp: Friday, 8:55 PM. That was the time she replied to one of my Facebook stories. Well, I didn’t see it until after 8:00 AM this morning.
After seeing her message, I called her several times, but the calls kept failing. Then, I texted and messaged her, but she never responded. By 8:30, I was heading to her house. When I tell you all kinds of thoughts were going on in my head. “What if she was on the road and her car broke down?” “What if she was hurt or needed me to drive her somewhere?” “What if she had fallen and couldn’t get up?!” She is 84, so it’s possible (plus she’s always joking about it😅). So, what was I supposed to think?
By the time I got to her house, I was in tears and preparing myself for the worst. Her car was in her driveway, so she wasn’t stranded somewhere. I rang the doorbell, and guess who came to the door smiling? It was her, all happy to see me. All I could do was hug her. Y’all, she had forgotten that she had replied to my story. And her message was supposed to say, “Call me” instead of “Car.” Ugh… That crazy autocorrect! And when she said she needed “some help,” she meant she needed help finding something.
Anyhoo… I ended up spending the day with her and having a lovely time. It wasn’t until this afternoon that I realized God had given me what I wanted and needed—time with my Air Force family, and I didn’t have to wait.🥰
I am forever in awe of my God! I cannot express enough how truly grateful and blessed I am.♥️

** By the way… THE COUNTDOWN IS ON!!! In exactly ONE MONTH, I will be 52!!!🎉🎉🎉
Never patch what you can repair. Instead, take your time and fix it. Fix it or it will continue to fall apart.♥️
Love you,

Good Morning☀️
How are you?
I hope you’re well.🌺
All day yesterday and now, this morning, the song that’s been on repeat in my head is Kirk Franklin & the Family’s song, “Conquerors.” The song says—
We ran the race, we kept the fight. We shed our blood for what was right. We carried our cross through storm and rain. Because of Christ now we can say—We are conquerors, conquerors. We are conquerors, conquerors.
. . . More than conquerors. More than conquerors. More than conquerors.
Whatever you may be up against, know that God’s given you the strength to endure and overcome it. You are more than a conqueror.
I pray you have the loveliest of days. Remember, God’s got you.♥️
I love you,
Shaun
The United States Air Force has three core values:
I am so hyped right now! “Air Force Elite: Thunderbirds” on Netflix is a must see!
I’m experiencing so many feelings at this moment.
Gratefulness: So grateful I had the opportunity to serve. Who knew that waking up one morning and deciding to join the Air Force would have this much of an impact on my life?
Nostalgia: I miss that life. I miss the camaraderie. We were more than coworkers and colleagues. We were family. (Been trying to find that same connection in the civilian world, but I’m not sure it exists.)
Pumped Up: I won’t leak any spoilers, but that ending! Listen, I already knew what was going to happen. There’s something about pressure and adrenaline that pushes you to excel.
And seeing General Jumper was the icing on the cake. I knew who he was before they even showed his name. I served under his command in Europe. Talk about chills!
Seeing this documentary made me feel like I was back at home. I believe I need to visit an Air Force base soon. I need to see my people.☺️
I am beyond blessed and so grateful.🥰

Always be kind, even when others aren’t kind to you. You never know who’s watching. Sometimes, your side is all they see.♥️
Love you always,
Shaun
**Kind, but not a doormat.😏
Only GOD can do what He does, and only He can bless you how YOU need to be blessed.
I take nothing in life for granted, and even the smallest of things I consider blessings. Anything that makes my heart smile is a blessing, and I always try to let God know how wonderful and amazing He is. Y’all, He’s so good! Even without doing anything He’s good.
The song I’m singing right now is William Murphy’s, “Praise Is What I Do.” I was created to praise Him.
I am forever in awe of my God.♥️

My heart is so full right now! Those who have been following me for a while know that it doesn’t take much to make me smile or feel blessed. Well, at this moment, I feel like I’m on top of the world! Y’all, I never knew seeing a few jets flying would cause me to feel so much joy. I really did love my time in the Air Force. It was my life for so long.
A few minutes ago, I opened Facebook and the first thing I saw were jets flying. Another one of my favs, Mrs. Michelle Obama, had posted the trailer for her and President Obama’s new documentary on Netflix, “Air Force Elite: Thunderbirds.” I had no idea it was even in the works. When I tell you it’s like receiving a gift you weren’t expecting. Felt the same yesterday when I found out “She the People” is a comedy about Mississippi. Who knew?! Lol.
Anyway… I can’t even begin to describe what I’m feeling at the moment. Y’all, during my career, I entered thousands of flight plans, did so many briefings and airfield checks, and the part of my job that I miss the most is watching the fighters take off, especially at the break of dawn. There’s nothing like it. I am so looking forward to seeing this documentary. If you would like to watch it too, it’s out now on Netflix!
Forever an Airman.🫡
Feeling so blessed.♥️
