My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
Perspective: a particular attitude towards or a way of regarding something: a point of view
Perspectives change. They are not set in stone. The way we viewed things last year, ten years, or even two days ago, can change. Y’all, it is very possible to wake up one morning and see things completely differently. Yes, it is actually possible to have a whole new outlook on life.
Love you,

This is your season to reap what you have sown. Can’t y’all hear William Murphy’s “ItsWorking”? I sure can!
It’s a new season. Everything is working together for your good—even when it doesn’t feel like it. Hang in there. Love you!♥️

Before my mom passed, my siblings and I gave her her roses, especially during her last few months of life. During that time, we were intentional about letting her know she was so very loved and appreciated. Y’all, there was no way we were going to let her leave this world wondering. Now, don’t get me wrong, we loved on her before then, but it was nothing like those last few months. Everything was different. Maybe because she was different. It was almost as if it had finally resonated with her that she was actually loved and appreciated. Imagine going through life never truly knowing if you were loved or appreciated. Hmmm… Another topic for another day.
Well, unlike Momma, I don’t have to wonder. I know my two love me. I feel it through their actions. Not through receiving material things like physical roses or gifts, but through their affection and words of appreciation, affirmation and gratitude. Yes, I am one loved mother. Smiling
Not only am I grateful for my roses from them, but also from others. I am so grateful for those who pour into me and let me know that I am appreciated and loved. I receive, accept, and appreciate my roses.
Hmmm… Maybe that’s the key. Roses must be accepted after received. Again, another topic for another day because I haven’t always accepted my roses, either.
Anyhoo… If you are reading this, please accept your roses. Please know that you are truly appreciated and loved. Thank you so much for taking time from your day to drop in and visit my world. In Tupac’s words, you are appreciated. Sending you virtual hugs. Praying God blesses you many, many times over. Love you!♥️

When was the last time you were still long enough to hear God’s voice?
Facebook Memory: May 14, 2022
STOP
Listen
What do you hear?
Sometimes I find myself moving a mile a minute – busy with this, thinking about that, trying to figure things out on my own. Then, after I’m good and frustrated, I hear, “STOP. Listen.” Ha! That’s when I hear God’s voice.
Thanks for reading. Enjoy your day!♥️

If more kindness, love, light, peace, humility, compassion, empathy, hope and so forth is what I seek, I must be intentional about putting it into the atmosphere. I have to do more to make sure it is seen and shared, whether I am the one creating the content or sharing someone else’s. I know I won’t always get it right. However, I am willing to try. I refuse to believe there are more bad things happening in the world than good. The good just are not being highlighted enough.
Here is a quote from another fav of mine, President Barack Obama.
Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek.
President Barack Obama
I have to be intentional about promoting the change I am seeking.
Wishing you a lovely week!♥️
Be Blessed,
Shaun

Encourage someone today. Even if that someone happens to be yourself.🌼
The quote below was taken from a book of encouraging words my mom had written a while back. Thought I would also include guidance and patience because all three are definitely needed—strength, guidance, and patience.♥️ ~Shaun
Pruning season is finally over and blooming season has arrived. Remember to stay present and enjoy every moment. Love you!♥️ ~Shaun

It’s blooming season. Even if it doesn’t feel like it at the moment, know that it is. The blooms are coming.♥️
Settling for life as it is is much easier than putting in effort to change. Settling is what you eventually look back on thinking, “I should’ve,” “I could’ve,” or “I wish I would’ve.” But… you didn’t!
Facebook Memory: May 2, 2022
Settling is easy. Going after your dream takes time, patience, confidence and courage. Please don’t shortchange yourself because you’re too impatient or too discouraged to wait. You owe it to yourself to become and have everything you’ve ever dreamed.♥️
Yes, settling is easy. It’s easy because it gives you momentary satisfaction. It allows you to sit comfortably and cozy while life and time passes by. But, guess what? That desire for what you truly want, never leaves. Nope. It just lies dormant waiting for the craziest moment to reappear. You know, that moment when you have finally come to terms with this is my life. Then BAM! It’s back!
My advice, do not settle. Yes, the journey may be more difficult than you imagined. However, if there is a dream that continuously nags at you, keep pursuing it. Listen, rest if and when you must, then get back to it. I don’t know about you, but I would rather spend my life chasing my dreams than get to the end and wish that I would have kept trying.
That’s all for now. Wishing you a beautifully blessed day.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
I could not decide on which Facebook memory to use so you decide. Which one most resonates with you?
Love you!♥️
