Rabbit Holes

Shaun Bradford

I’m not a TikTok person. Have never been able to spend more than a few minutes on it. However, tonight I have already spent over an hour watching videos. How did I get sucked in?! Guess it’s one more app I’m going to have to be intentional about staying off of.

Anyhoo… life is good. And according to TikTok, I am doing better than a lot of people. Tonight I have seen so many videos about betrayals, breakups, gossip and everything in between. Y’all, I watched things I wouldn’t normally spend my time on. Shaking my head… Yeah, I gotta stay away from TikTok. Listen, that “For You,” isn’t for me. Sticking with my little group of friends and the people I actually follow. That “For You” will have you all depressed and distrusting everybody. Kind of like those Lifetime movies. Let me go back to YouTube.

Before I end, I want to pray for those who are hurting, those who are heartbroken, those who have been betrayed, those who are broken but pretending to be well, praying for those who are trying to make it from day to day. May God hold them a little closer. Praying He wipes away their tears and heals their hearts.

People are really hurting…

Good Night♥️

Want to be Happy? Be Happy

Shaun Bradford

How many times have you said something like, “They make me happy,” “This is my happy space,” or “I am happiest when…”? I know throughout my lifetime I have said or thought it at least a million times. However, looking back, it wasn’t the people around me or the spaces I was in that made me happy, it was me choosing to be happy. I am not saying that my surroundings didn’t contribute to my happiness, but ultimately it was my decision to be happy that allowed me to experience it.

Y’all, I have been in some spaces where I should have felt my lowest, yet I was happy. I have also been in spaces where I should’ve been on cloud nine and was miserable. It took me years to realize I controlled my happiness. I am not saying that I am never sad or disappointed or heartbroken. What I am saying is, over time I decided happiness was a better choice, and I absolutely love being happy.

Facebook Memory: September 30, 2021.

Yes, I am creating my own happiness… but not today! Today, I’m going back to Starbucks to get my Caramel Apple Spice. I need the real thing. Lol. Starbucks, make me happy!

Praying you have an absolutely amazing day. Remember, you are in control of your happiness. Love you!♥️

Grateful

Shaun Bradford

Woke up singing “Grateful” by Hezekiah Walker. It’s one of the songs on my favorite playlist. The song says—

I am grateful for the things that you have done
Yes, I'm grateful for the victories we've won
I could go on and on and on about your works
Because I'm grateful, grateful, so grateful just to praise you Lord
Flowing from my heart are the issues of my heart, it's gratefulness

Thanking God for life.♥️
