My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
For a day that started off rocky, it ended well. I believe it wasn’t until late this afternoon that I was able to sit back and breathe. Thanking God for rest because that’s exactly what I am about to get… some rest. And you do the same.♥️
Good Night!
Shaun
Don’t you just hate it when you respond to an email before daybreak and end up working instead of getting a few more hours of rest. That’s what happened this morning right after I posted my first blog saying I was tired. UGHH!!! Can’t blame anyone but myself. Well, I am about to call it a day and relax and…….
Watch Divorce in the Black!! It’s Tyler Perry’s latest film. Now, if anyone should be tired, it’s him. They used to say Tom Joyner was the hardest working man in radio. Well, Tyler has to be the hardest working man in the television and film industry. The man is forever releasing something.
Here’s a link to the movie trailer. Check it out!♥️ ~Shaun
Of course our body needs rest, but so does our mind. As we wind down for the night, let’s release any lingering thoughts and/or problems that have held us captive all day.
Release and relax.
As Elsa says, “Let it go.”
Let’s let it all go so we can get some real, much needed rest.
Wishing you love and peace.♥️
Good Night,
Shaun
I actually slept in this morning! Yes, that’s what I did! I went to bed early and woke up much later than usual. I guess I needed the rest. Had a busy weekend and yesterday was exhausting.
I don’t have any Facebook memories or journal entries to share today. Just stay safe, keep trusting God, and have a blessed day. Talk to you again soon.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
The song, “In Times Like These,” is stuck in my head again so it must be significant for this moment in time. Please be sure, be very sure, your anchor is secured in Jesus. That is all.
Praying you have a restful night. Love you.♥️
Shaun
Get some rest. God will continue working as we sleep. Everything will be alright.♥️
Good Night
Shaun
To rest means to cease movement; while relaxing means to become less tired or anxious. Hope you are able to do both. Your mind, body, and soul deserves it.♥️ ~Shaun
Below is a post I wrote last year about my Facebook memory from the year before (December 23, 2021). Guess I have been sharing my memories for a while now—smile. So, since the memory has already been shared, I will use the same quote (too good not to reshare) and piggyback off of what I shared yesterday about rebirth.
The rebirth…
The rebirth will require us to leave things behind. Things that have held us back and/or been haunting us for years, even decades. It’s time to release them so that we can move forward in our purpose.
When I started my journey on this side of 50, I had to release quite a few things (people too, some released themselves). At first, it didn’t feel good. Honestly, it felt like I was losing part of myself including my identity. If you have read any of my monthly “celebratory” blogs (one is coming tomorrow!), you know I went through a spiritual, emotional, and mental pruning phase. Baby, when I tell you it did not feel good! Had me grieving for real. But it helped me see what had to go and what needed to stay. Everything that is still with me today was meant to stay. Now, I still have some decluttering to do but it’s nothing like the pruning. Whew!
Tomorrow, I will be 50 1/2 (smile) and will share another celebratory update about my first six months on this side of 50 (woohoo!). So stay tuned…
Here is last year’s blog which contains Facebook memories from last year and the year before—December 23, 2022 & December 23, 2021. Enjoy!
By the way, I did put up my Christmas tree, played Christmas music and watched Christmas movies most of the day. It changed everyone’s mood. My babies have always fed off of my energy. It’s no different now that they are adults. I still have to set the tone for my little family despite what I may be feeling. I love seeing them smile.
I pray you have a wonderful day. Remember to love on someone today, and allow yourself to be loved on. There is no greater gift than love. Give it. Receive it. I love you!♥️

Our destiny is not controlled by man. It is controlled by God. Rest in Him while He guides you to where you are meant to be.♥️ ~Shaun
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.

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.♥️
