My life. My world. Love, hope, peace, joy & happiness.
Guess what?! You know that thing you thought would take you out; that thing you didn’t think you would ever bounce back from. Yeah… THAT thing. Well… Look at you! You’re still here and STILL standing!!
Yessss…. YOU’RE STILL STANDING!!♥️
Love you,

Happy Sunday!
This morning I’m singing, “A wonderful change has come over me.”
Last week, my week began with Tamela Mann’s song, “Change Me,” stuck in my head for two days. I wrote how I felt my spirit and soul worshiping God. Y’all, it was such a wonderful experience, something I had never experienced before.
Well, this morning I woke up singing, “A wonderful change has come o-o-ver meeeee.” Smiling
As I mentioned last week, I am not sure what God is doing in my life, but it’s something extraordinary and it’s already been very much felt.
Forever grateful.
Beyond blessed.
Thank you so much for reading. I pray you have a beautiful Sunday and a wonderful week.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Here’s a memory that is so worth sharing. Five years ago, I wrote—
“The only way I can move forward is to face my fears and stop sabotaging opportunities.”
Five years later (today)…
I’m trying not to laugh, because it’s definitely not funny, but I don’t know why I thought my fears would magically disappear. Call me naive, but I assumed that if I just prayed about it, everything would be fine. I didn’t realize I needed to actively put myself out there—joining groups, sitting on committees, and creating TikTok and YouTube videos—before the fear would start to subside. Now, don’t get me wrong, prayer helped, but it did not replace me facing my fears head on.
Now, I would be lying if I said fear doesn’t still pop up, because believe me it does; however, it’s not as intense as it was. I know y’all are probably tired of me talking about how my life changed after turning 50, but it really did. And it wasn’t until last week, when I decided to make a TikTok video, that I noticed the anxiety was gone. Nothing but God!
Listen, when I tell you I have been experiencing so many “God-moments” lately. Y’all, He’s working, and not only can I feel it, but I can also see it.
Thanks for following my journey.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
You are more powerful than you know. You have the power to choose…
The direction in which your life goes,
How your spirit flows,
What your heart and mind hold.
Yes, YOU are powerful.♥️
Love you always,
Shaun
Good Morning!☀️
Setbacks.
Plot twists.
Storms.
Life lifeing.
Exhale… Yes, let it all out.
Below is a reblog of my “Wednesday Writings” written on October 26, 2022. Honestly, I am not quite sure what storm or plot twist, as I called it, I was going through. However, I do know I survived it.
Y’all, by the grace of God I am still here and still standing after the countless storms I have been through. I’m so glad God never left me, and that He gave me the strength to endure the pain of whatever I was going through in those seasons.
I pray that whatever setback, storm, plot twist, or life experience you may be currently going through ends soon, very soon, so you’re able to smile, rejoice, and enjoy the goodness of life. Listen, don’t allow your current situation to make you give up hope or change your outlook on life. Where you are today is not where you will stay. You deserve a beautiful, stress-free, pain-free, storm-free life, and you will have one.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
This time I waited to post!
I had another message scheduled to post just in case I didn’t hear to share a different message at my scheduled posting time. I always try to wait before sharing because I often hear to share a specific message right before it’s time for me to post. Smile. The majority of my messages aren’t just random; they’re God-given. Well, I now realize I don’t have to choose between messages unless I hear not to post the one that I’ve scheduled. I can actually share both.
Today, I’m giving myself permission to share more than one message during my scheduled timeframes. I don’t have to wait and share them hours apart. For some reason, I really dislike sharing back-to-back posts. It’s definitely a barrier I need to overcome.
Anyhoo…
Some people would rather do a video or make a social media post; I’d rather blog.
**For Transparency: I later updated this first section to include more details. My initial post was very vague. When I write, I often assume the reader has already read my previous post before moving on to the next—somewhat like reading a continuous story. Will do better in the future.😘 – Shaun (10.24.2025)
The song of the moment is “Restoration” by The Winans. No lie, I heard it minutes before my other post was scheduled to publish (going to publish both).
The song says—
“Restoration has finally come. Been restored back to my place in God.”
Y’all, I am so grateful for God’s love, mercy, patience, and grace.
The song ends with—
“I’m restored. I’m glad about it. I’ve been renewed. And I’m glad about it.”
“Restoration” by The Winans
Wishing you peace and blessings. Remember to always put God first and trust His guidance, even when you can’t see where He’s taking you. Just trust and believe it’s somewhere greater and better than you’ve ever imagined.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Yesterday I wrote—
“Be You. You were never created to fit in. Stand in your fullest glory and be YOU!”
Sometimes I struggle between showing up fully as the passionate, loving person who believes there’s good in everybody and wants to save the world, and suppressing myself so much that I don’t show up at all. When I turned 50, I made a promise to myself, and to that five year old little girl who used to get in trouble for being overly expressive, that I would show up fully! Y’all, it’s taken me a while to get to here, and now that I’m here, I’m not going back.♥️

First, let me answer a few questions that may or may not need answering. Yesterday, I mentioned that Michelle Obama was number four on my Top Ten list of people to meet, and Tyler Perry was number five. So, you may wonder if former President Obama was on my list. Laughing. He was. He actually rounded off the top ten. Yes, he was my number ten. And last night, my number five introduced my number ten. Y’all, it was beautiful! They both gave heartfelt, passionate speeches about what democracy meant to them and the need to protect and preserve it. Also, how our diversity is our strength.
When I opened YouTube this morning, Tyler’s speech was the first video that popped up so why not share it! Take a listen.
That’s all for now! Praying you have a wonderful day and an even better weekend.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
Good Morning!☀️
“My Journey With God” is the title I have decided on for one of my extra posts for the day. I may or may not post one daily, but when I do, it will be authentic, not forced.
Trust.
Trust God.
Trust His plan.
That’s the message! Have a wonderfully blessed day.♥️
Love you,
Shaun
