It’s Never Too Late

It’s never too late to create the life you have always wanted. So… Create!

Never stop creating until you are living in your dreams. Then, create more!♥️ ~Shaun

Facebook Memory: March 3, 2023

You are the dreamer, the creator, the artist. Create the life you have always imagined.♥️

Keep building. Keep creating. Soon you will see what you’ve always dreamed.

Hello Sunday

When people show you who they are, believe them.

Dr. Maya Angelou

I tend to give people a lot of grace because I know people be peopleing (yeah, I know it’s not a word—I’m peopleing. Smile). You never know if someone is having a bad day so they come off as rude or unapproachable; or maybe that’s just their demeanor, but they are still good people. Listen, I have relatives who will cuss you out and love on you in the same breath. I also have some that will treat you like you’re the best thing walking and tear you down when you’re out of sight. Yes, I have seen it all. They just be peopleing. (Smile) So, for me, first impressions don’t really mean anything. It’s a person’s actions and character the majority of the time that shows me who they truly are. People can hide who they are some of the time but not all the time.

If you’re not privy to someone’s daily life, trust your instincts. Do not keep overriding them. If something does not feel right, it’s probably not right. If something seems off, it probably is. Stay covered. Believe me, when you stay covered, God will keep you protected.

And yes, this message is definitely for me too. I tend to extend too much grace. For some reason, I believe there is good in everyone. It just baffles me that some people intentionally set out to use, misuse, abuse and hurt others. Just writing this seems unreal. Thankful for God’s protection.

Hopefully this wasn’t too dark. Didn’t mean for it to be. Praying you have a wonderful Sunday and fabulous week. And remember to be kind. I really wish there was a way we could add more kindness to the world.

Love you!♥️

Trust your gut; and always, always, ALWAYS, trust God. Do not override your feelings.

Never Give Up

Here’s today’s Facebook memory from my Nutrition with LaShaundreaB page:

Y’all, I needed to see this memory today. Earlier, I saw where Tabitha Brown had shared a couple of posts from years ago, years before she became well known. One of her messages was, “Never stop DREAMING!!” She shared it on March 1, 2011, thirteen years ago!

As I said, I needed to see this memory today. Y’all, I haven’t shared any food pictures or made any cooking videos in months. Honestly, I had decided to let that dream go. I felt like it was taking too much time and focus away from things that I should have been focusing on. Same with drawing. Whew. I have so many decisions to make. Do I follow my passions now, or put them off until later? I really wish I was superwoman and could do it all. Life…

Here’s the video that I had made showing me preparing the salad. I had shared it as a Facebook reel, but for some reason the link won’t work on here. And for some crazy reason I didn’t share it on Instagram. Anyhoo…here’s the YouTube short.

March 2, 2023

Yeah… I definitely needed to see this today. God is so good. As Tabitha said all those years ago, we should never stop dreaming. She didn’t and now she’s living in hers.

When I tell you Year50 is doing a number on me! But it is what I asked for, right? If I want the next 50+ to be different, I have to do something different. Which means I have to focus on what I desire the next 50 years to be like, and can’t continue doing what was comfortable the last 50.

Okay, that’s all. Just felt like sharing.

Keep going! It will happen!!♥️
