Remember the Good Times

Shaun Bradford

Remember how life used to be before it became so complexed and complicated.

When your smiles and laughter were purely genuine.

When your dreams and aspirations were just pieces of your imagination.

When sitting on the front porch people watching was your favorite pastime.

When the smell of fresh rain made you smile and thunderstorms put you to sleep.

Remember…

When love was free.

When no one had hidden agendas.

When a person’s word was their bond.

When sharing your life on social media was nonexistent.

Remember…

When life was so simple.

You know…

When you were free to BE.

Remember those times, places and spaces. They are reminders that life is so worth living.♥️

Keep those memories near and revisit them often.

Love you!

Get Some Rest– It’s Handled

Shaun Bradford

Here’s the song that is currently playing over and over in my head:

Ain’t No Need to Worry by The Winans (featuring Anita Baker) 

Ain't no need in worrying
what the night is gonna bring,
it'll be all over in the morning.

There's a fear of night fall,
when darkeness comes and covers all the day.

Sometimes we feel pain, 
but there are things that we can change, just pray.

Ain't no need to worry,
what the night is gonna bring,
it'll be all over in the morning.

Troubles come, but they do past,
heartaches, hurts, oh but, they don't last always.

Sometimes we feel pain, 
but there are things that we can change, just pray.

Ain't no need to worry,
what the night is gonna bring,
it'll be all over in the morning.

In the morning, the morning,
it'll be all over in the morning.
It'll be all over in the morning.

Makes no different how dark the night,
if you trust in God, it'll be alright;
(it'll be all over in the morning).

It makes no difference how long the day,
trust in God, He'll make a way;
(it'll be all over in the morning).

Weeping will last, but only for awhile,
but when the sun shines, you'll wear a smile;
(it'll be all over in the morning).

And I say, thank you Jesus,
in the presence of all those who hear my voice;
(it'll be all over in the morning).

In the morning, the morning,
it'll be all over in the morning.

It'll be all over in the morning.
Lyrics by LyricFind

Whatever is troubling your mind, your heart, and/or your soul, let it go. Release it. Know that God has taken care of it all. It’s done. Now, get some rest.♥️

Praying

Shaun Bradford

There’s so much going on right now. So much chaos. Sadly, so many are facing situations where they are surrounded by chaos and distress, and they feel like there is no escape. I’m praying that God gives them a sense of peace. Praying for their protection. And above all, praying that God intervenes soon.

Here’s my Facebook memory from last year. I realize that it may be difficult not to let what’s happening around you affect you; however, do all you can to stay afloat.

Facebook Memory: October 13, 2022

They say it’s not the water around the boat that sinks it, but the water that gets inside. My prayer for you today is that the water – drama, chaos, dysfunction, bad vibes – remains outside your boat.

God, we need You.

Praying you have a blessed day and weekend. May God comfort you and surround you with peace, even in the midst of chaos. I know that He’s able.

Love you!♥️

Be Encouraged: God is Working

Shaun Bradford

William Becton’s song, “Be Encouraged,” says:

I know right now it's impossible to see,
But God is gonna work it out if you just believe.
Remember this one thing while you're going through,
If God delivered Daniel, He'll do the same for you.

Be encouraged no matter what's going on,
He'll make it alright,
But you gotta stay strong.

My Two Cents About Somebody Else’s Business — LOL

Shaun Bradford

Soooo…

I don’t usually speak on celebrities’ business unless something about it resonates with me or hits me a certain way. So today’s big news on social media is Jada Pinkett Smith revealing that she and Will have been separated since 2016. I haven’t heard the interview or the whole story—and I absolutely detest click bait—however, this time I’m biting and adding my two cents.

Y’all, life be lifing! Let’s be real, we have absolutely no idea where life is going to take us. We are blindsided every day by things we didn’t see coming. And most of the time it’s not due to other people’s actions but our own. Sometimes we wake up and decide to react or respond to things differently. It happens. I don’t know why. Can’t explain it. But it happens. The only possible explanation is we are human.

I don’t know about you but I am far from perfect. I try not to judge people because I know firsthand that life can take unexpected turns no matter how much you plan. It’s the story of my life. As I have said before, I had my entire life planned out as a child. Then, one blow to my plan literally took me out. And it didn’t stop there. I continuously made decisions that took me even further away from that plan. Looking back I hate how it happen but most of it was necessary. Anyway, it took me nearly 30 years to stop blaming myself for how things happened and for feeling like a failure.

Y’all, I’m saying all of this to say, life is going to do what it does. It’s up to us to figure out how we handle it. And hopefully we have people around us who will support and love us unconditionally when it does.

I read Will’s book and loved it. Can’t wait to read Jada’s. I have been rocking with them both for over 30 years and I’m not going to let their authenticity, vulnerability or life in general, stop me from supporting them. As I have said before, life be lifing. Don’t be so quick to judge or throw people away because you never know when you’ll need the same kind of support and understanding. It’s called grace.

Thank you for reading to my two cents. Wishing you a blessed day. Love you!♥️
