My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
Just a little food for thought…
If you want to grow, you must be willing to 1) put in the work and 2) be patient. Yes…patient. Patient with yourself and with the process. I believe we would all prefer that growth happen overnight or instantly; however, it doesn’t. It takes time, effort, determination, and sometimes courage. All of which requires patience.
I hope your Monday has started well. Remember to breathe and take breaks when needed.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Every year, I share this memory of where Shaun’s Daily Inspiration began. In 2018, I didn’t know it would evolve into what it has become. I didn’t even have a name for it then. Today, I use my drawings as backgrounds for about 95% of my quotes, and most of my quotes are original. I don’t know where God is taking me with this or It’s Shaun’s World, but I am joyfully following along. This is what I love doing.♥️🌺
Good Morning!☀️
I’m not sure if this new routine of getting more sleep is going to work. I feel like I’ve gotten too much sleep. It’s new so I will allow myself time to adjust. The real test will be how I perform throughout the day. Will I need to take a nap this afternoon or not?
Anyhoo, here’s a message I found in last year’s journal entry. I wrote I found it on LinkedIn.
The LinkedIn quote—
“Your new life is going to cost you your old life. You ready to make that trade?” –Author Unknown
The cost.
There’s always a cost associated with change.
When I declared that this side of 50 would be different than my last 50 years of life, I had no idea of what it would cost me. On some days I feel like I have lost so much more than I’ve gained. My life isn’t the same. (Just being honest.) Then, on other days—most days—when I’m working on my own projects or spending time with my loves (which is what I really wanted—the freedom to move and spend time as I please), I’m on cloud nine. But it did cost me.
Yes, I made the trade because I desired something different. I wanted to experience something different. I’m only a year and a half into it so it’s very new. I know that in time I will adjust and one day the things I lost will feel like a gain. Giving myself time, grace, and space to process it all.
That’s all for now. Not sure if 6:00 AM CT will be my new post time or not. We shall see. I did wake up around 3:30, but forced myself to go back to sleep. This is another thing I will eventually adjust to. I know in the long run it’s for the best.
I pray you have a wonderfully blessed day!♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Life is a process. Last year I wrote to trust the process. What I should have written was “Trust God through and throughout the process.” Life is always going to do what it does, but God will always remain stable. Trust Him.♥️

Life is interesting. We never know where it’s taking us. One minute we think we’re headed in one direction and the next, we’re headed somewhere completely different. Thankfully, in the end, we always land where we are meant to be. Trust the process.
Wishing you a wonderful first day of July! Speaking new opportunities and blessings over your month. Praying God blocks everything against you and whatever is meant for harm will instead work out in your favor.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Do not be afraid to trust the process. I promise you, you got this!♥️ ~Shaun
You cannot have the promise without going through the process. You have to go through the process.
Bishop T.D. Jakes – Quote shared on April 10, 2022
I have nothing more to add. The process is a must! The question is, can you endure the process?
Something to seriously think about…♥️ ~Shaun
Shaun’s Daily Inspiration: April 5, 2022
Smile. God is still working. Whatever He began, He will finish. Hang in there.
It might take years, but God always finishes what He begins. Unlike us, He does not get tired or give up. Even when we have given up, He continues working. So, do not be discouraged by the wait or setbacks. I believe it is His way of making sure we are prepared to properly accept, handle, walk in, and live in the finished product. We have to be ready for it.
Y’all, I am so grateful God is patient and allows us time to process our fears and doubts. That He overlooks the countless times we self-sabotage opportunities because of our feelings of inadequacy. Yes, I am so grateful that He does not allow our egos to win. I don’t know about yours, but I know my ego can be a bit much at times. Grateful He does not give up on us when we have given up on ourselves.
Grateful and blessed.
Remember, whatever God began—even in your childhood—He will finish.♥️
Love you,
Shaun

If God said it, it’s already done. Period! Trust the process.
Wishing you a lovely day and an amazing week!♥️

Grief is a tricky thing. It seems to pop up out of nowhere and when you least expect it. My mom’s birthday is tomorrow. She would’ve been 66 years old. Seems like the closer it’s gotten to her day, the busier I have tried to become. Been trying to surround myself with positive and uplifting energy. However, when things become quiet, as they are now, it hits me. So what do I do? I go searching for another uplifting fix.
Well, I thought I had found another one. Decided to watch a video by Pastor Touré Roberts thinking it was about entrepreneurship. Little did I know it was about dealing with grief. Not just grief due to death, but unresolved grief from other situations and circumstances—his was from childhood.
I’m sharing his video with you because maybe it holds the answer you have been searching for on how to handle grief. Like Pastor Touré, I don’t like feeling vulnerable or sad. Besides when my brother died, I had always been able to somewhat control grief. I knew how to block it. It’s what got me through some difficult situations. I didn’t have time to grieve or feel sorry for myself. Didn’t want to. However, after watching Pastor Touré’s video, I probably should have grieved a few things. Probably should have gone through the process instead of blocking the pain. Today and tomorrow, I am going to feel what I need to feel. I miss my mom.
Anyhoo… Wishing Pastor Touré well on his journey of processing his grief. Here’s his video:
