Year 50: Month 7

Happy 50 years 7 months to me!! Yay!! Still can’t believe I am 50! What a blessing.

As you know, today is the day my daughter is moving to another state. In fact, she and her fiancé just left. No tears, only smiles. They are in God’s hands.

Just thinking about how around 29 years ago my baby girl was preparing to make her debut. I guess you can say I am feeling what I felt the day she entered the world. It was the day my life changed and I began my new journey as a mother. Now, another journey is beginning. Smiling

At this moment I can hear Mariah Carey singing, “Butterfly.”

When you love someone so deeply
They become your life
It’s easy to succumb to overwhelming fears inside
Blindly I imagined I could
Keep you under glass
Now I understand to hold you
I must open up my hands
And watch you rise …

So flutter through the sky
Butterfly
Fly
Spread your wings and fly
Butterfly

Well, that’s all I have for this month’s birthday celebration. Only five months left! All I have to say is, “God’s will be done.” Amen

Enjoy your day!♥️

Are You Doing What You Love?

Think about it. I mean, really think about it. Are you doing what you love? Not only career wise but in life. Or…are you waiting for conditions to be right or better before you decide to do it?

It’s my hope that you are doing what you love and that you absolutely love what you are doing. Sometimes we find ourselves doing what we love but because we are not in the right environment our experiences are not favorable. Been there.

I hope you are doing both. If not, I pray you will be soon. Love you!♥️ ~Shaun

Life is too short not be doing both.

Live, Laugh, Love, and Be Kind

I believe the secret to a good life consists of actually living it; laughing often (gotta laugh); loving wholeheartedly; and being genuinely kind to others (not for show). Here’s what I shared two years ago.

Facebook Memory: January 23, 2024

Smile, if you’re already here. If this is how you’re living. If you are not here, get here quickly. This is where peace resides.

Live: Stay present!

Laugh: Your soul needs it.

Love: Unconditionally – it’s the secret of true peace and happiness.

Be Kind: EVERYONE’s struggling with something. No one’s exempt.

Focus on who & what truly matters and let the rest go. Life is short, spread LOVE!♥️ #ILoveYou

Again, spread love. Everyone needs love, even those we do not believe deserve it—they need it. Approaching them with hate only adds hate to your heart. Also, add hope. Whenever possible, add a little bit of hope to your conversations. Give people something to look forward to even if you cannot see it. Listen, hope goes a long way. It keeps life going.

That’s all I have for now. Wishing you a beautifully, blessed day.

Enjoy!♥️

The Good Times

Yesterday, I could not decide which Facebook memory to share so I didn’t share one. Well, instead of sharing my “Hello Sunday” on my social media accounts, I decided to share this memory. It’s a day later, but worth sharing.

Facebook Memory: January 21, 2023

Much too often we remember hurts and disappointments before we remember the good. Today, I encourage you to focus on the good times. The moments that made you smile and feel loved. Have a wonderful day.♥️

Always hold your good memories close and dear.

Praying you have a blessed day and joyful week. May God shower you with unexpected blessings.♥️

Love you,

Shaun
