Keep Shining!

Facebook Memory: April 18, 2022

What you have to offer is special. It’s unique. Don’t shy away from it. Embrace it and shine. You, my friend, are one of a kind!♥️

Shine!✨

That was two years ago, but the message remains the same. You are one of a kind. No one can do you, but YOU! Keep shining!♥️

Love you,

My Soul Is Content

I made it to the water, y’all! Now my soul is content. Just needed to feel the vibes and hear the waves. God is good. I am so grateful He loves me. Can’t say it enough, I am truly, truly blessed.♥️ ~Shaun

God always provides what we need. Be careful not to overlook your blessings because they are not what you envisioned. Release control.

I needed this. Serenity…

What Do I Want?

This was a question actress, Rita Wilson, asked herself years ago. Well, I happened to come across her TEDx Talk on this date last year (will add it at the end) and asked myself the same question. Here is what I wrote in my journal on that day.

Shaun’s Journal Entry: April 17, 2023

“What do you want?” Just watched a TEDTalk by Rita Wilson. She said Oprah asked her this question back in 2005 when she felt she had it all. She said she felt greedy to ask for more. Then, one day while she was running, she figured it out– Music. She said that she always loved music. That music gave her a natural high. So she told her agent that she wanted to do a musical. She said her agent just stared at her like she was naked in front of a group of people and couldn’t move. The next day she got an offer to star in [the musical] Chicago. After talking to a friend, her, her husband (Tom Hanks) and their daughter flew to NY to see the play. She said after it was done, she turned to her husband and daughter and said there was no way she could do it. But they disagreed. They told her that she absolutely could. And she did.

And here is a tad bit (learning not to over share) of how I responded to the question.

I don’t want a 9-5. I want to be free to move about and spread love and hope. I want to inspire people through my work. I want to assist others in achieving their dreams and goals. I want to be their cheerleader. That’s who I want to be. Lately I have been thinking about what I would say and what I would bring to the table. The answer is assistance. Wherever I am my goal is to assist others with improving their programs. Whatever I can do to make things better, I will.

Smiling because I am doing exactly what I said I wanted to do. Y’all, God is good. He is absolutely amazing. The funny thing is I had forgotten I had written this. And honestly, I had no idea I was doing what I said I wanted to do. I just kind of flowed into it. Didn’t even see it happening. Again, God is good. I am truly blessed.

Here is Rita’s video.

Have a blessed day!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Chosen By God

You may not feel it, might not even believe it, but you were chosen for a reason and this season. God could have chosen anyone else, but He chose you. You already know what you have been called to do. God did not call anyone else to fulfill your purpose. No, He called you. It’s time for you to step up and walk in your calling.♥️ ~Shaun

Don’t worry, you will not fail. How can you? You were chosen by God!
