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!♥️

God Is The Joy And The Strength Of My Life
Good Morning!
Facebook Memory: August 15, 2022
“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,
Shaun
My Purpose
Facebook Memory, August 11, 2022
“My purpose is God affirmed.🙌🏽 The world will always need more love, light, peace and positivity, and that’s exactly what I plan to give.♥️”
That’s my purpose. I didn’t choose it. It’s who I am.
Have you discovered your purpose? If so, did you choose it or did it choose you?
Hmmm…
Well, that’s all. Please continue to enjoy your day.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
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.♥️
