I Love You

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️

On March 28, 2019, I began my journal entry with—

“Note to future LaShaundrea: I love you.”

Can’t help but cry.

Shaun… LaShaundrea, I love YOU! I love you for life. I love the little girl, teenager, young adult, and now seasoned adult you’ve become, and the wise elder you will be. Yes, I love ALL of YOU.

Many thanks to my past self for leaving that message for me. I have a notification on my phone set at different times throughout the day that says, “Smile. I love you.” I set them to remind me to smile and know I am loved. Well, now it’s just something that pops up and I swipe away. However, seeing this today means so much more. I needed to see it today.

Thank you, past Shaun, for sending love to me today, of all days. Smiling while crying. The fact that I didn’t send it to future Shaun, but to future LaShaundrea is mind blowing. Although we’re the same person, we are not the same. LaShaundrea needs the love today.

Y’all, welcome to my world, where I leave messages for my future self.

I love my life. I used to wonder, and still do at times, why God created me the way He did. I believe the answer is because He loves me, and He loves what He created.

I love you!♥️

Again, God Is So Amazing

I love watching God work! Y’all, He’s soooo amazing.

How about I didn’t even know I had created this graphic (July 20, 2021). I guess it was meant for this moment. Smiling.☺️

I hope you’re having a wonderful day!♥️

I love you much,

Shaun

By the way, the presentation and cooking demo went well. They loved the food but hated the unsweetened, flavored sparkling water. Lol

Zucchini, yellow squash, red onions, and assorted bell peppers, and honey-lime salmon with a mango salsa.

Chills!

Good Morning☀️

When I tell you the following Facebook memory gave me chills! Whew!!

When I shared this post four years ago, I had just taken a giant leap of faith. Today, I’m finally beginning to see the fruits of that leap. God set the stage. All I had to do was make things happen.

In a few hours, I’m giving another nutrition presentation. This one includes a cooking demo—grilled honey-lime salmon with pan roasted vegetables (both low-sodium). Then, tomorrow and Saturday, it’s conference time. Yay!

Y’all, I am so grateful God didn’t give up on me and kept my dreams alive. I am truly blessed.🙏🏽

That’s all for now. I pray your day is just as amazing as you are!♥️

Je t’aime,

Shaun

The Grace To Be Human

Shaun Bradford

Here’s what I shared on March 26, 2022.

No one is perfect, and none of us have lived flawless lives. I’m 100 percent certain that I am not the only one who’s said or done something I now look back on and ask myself, “What was I thinking?” It’s called being human.

I’m so grateful God isn’t human and doesn’t shame us for being so. Instead, He covers us with His grace. I can hear BeBe and CeCe Winans singing “Grace.” Y’all, where would we be without God’s grace?

That’s all I have for now. Wishing you a great rest of your day!♥️

Love you always,

Shaun

Happiness

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning☀️

Eight years ago, I shared the following quote by Bruce Van Horn.

“Happiness is not something you find. Happiness is something you create.”

Shared on March 26, 2017.

I believe this is true. How about you?

Have a wonderfully, blessed day. May it be a happy one!♥️

Love you,

Shaun
