Chills!

Good Morning☀️

When I tell you the following Facebook memory gave me chills! Whew!!

When I shared this post four years ago, I had just taken a giant leap of faith. Today, I’m finally beginning to see the fruits of that leap. God set the stage. All I had to do was make things happen.

In a few hours, I’m giving another nutrition presentation. This one includes a cooking demo—grilled honey-lime salmon with pan roasted vegetables (both low-sodium). Then, tomorrow and Saturday, it’s conference time. Yay!

Y’all, I am so grateful God didn’t give up on me and kept my dreams alive. I am truly blessed.🙏🏽


That’s all for now. I pray your day is just as amazing as you are!♥️

Je t’aime,

Shaun

Things That Make You Go Hmmm…

As Arsenio Hall used to say, “Things that make you go ‘Hmmm’.”

Notice the time?

Found this amongst my handy-dandy saved photos. It seems like my photos are creating their own stories nowadays.🙃 As you can see, love was on my mind at 1:48 AM. Really?! Y’all, I’m cracking up. Seriously… at one o’clock in the morning, I was writing the word “Love.” The sun is cute, though. Why am I hearing, “Sunny days, everybody loves them? Tell me, baby, can you stand the rain?” I guess that’s the adult version of “Sunny Days.” See previous post.

On a serious note, though. I truly love life, even the craziness of it all—which wasn’t always the case. I believe me having a near death experience changed everything. You see, several years ago, I had a car accident not even 30 minutes after thinking I no longer wanted to be here. Yeah… I was so done with life that I wanted to be gone. It was only a thought. Then, the accident happened. Since then, I cherish life and everything that comes with it. Bad times happen. The hurts and disappointments haven’t stopped, but I’m still here! I’m still here! I would have missed out on soooo much had I not lived. Y’all, I’m still here!

Think I’ll end now. I’m not sure if I’ll share a mid-morning post or if this will be it. If I don’t, I’ll talk to you this afternoon.

Love you!♥️

Shaun

Love… How Much Is Too Much?

Good Morning☀️ How much love is too much love? Hmmm…

Here’s a memory from March 24, 2024.

Know That You Are Loved” by Cleo Sol (March 24, 2024)

It seems like love has been my theme for the last few days, maybe weeks. Since I would like to see more of it in the world, I’m spreading it every chance I get. I want you…yes, YOU—to always know that you are loved. I never want you to doubt that you are.

Sooo… How much love is too much?

When love is pure and genuine, it just flows. It has no limits.

Love…

Allow it to flow to you, through you, and from you. Receive it and give it.

That’s all I have for now. I pray you have a wonderfully blessed week.♥️

I love you,

Shaun

When No One Is Watching

Who are you when no one is watching?

Does kindness and goodness authentically flow through and from you?

Are you loving and compassionate?

Are you humble and trustworthy?

Are you a peacekeeper or a drama creator?

Is revenge or forgiveness the first thing you think of when mistreated?

Is your relationship with God a priority, somewhere between, or last on your list?

Who are you when no one is watching?


I don’t know about you, but I always strive to be who I say I am because if no one else is watching, God is always watching.♥️

Love you much,

Shaun

I’m Here

Wasn’t sure what I would share this afternoon. So, I decided to search my photos based on the first word that came to mind and that word was “here.” Several photos popped up, but the photo above is the one that caught my eye.

Yes, I’m here! And I’m still standing.

Y’all, God is so very good. If you only knew… I am beyond grateful and blessed that He loves me.

I’m here!!


I pray you’re having a wonderful day, and that you’ll have an even better weekend. Remember, you’re also here and still standing tall. Whatever was meant to destroy you, couldn’t. You made it!♥️

Sending you much love!

Shaun
