Happy Self-Love Saturday!💗
I pray that you are doing well.🌸
At this moment, I’m singing “Blessings (On Me)” by Theresa Phondo. The song says—
“Blessings on blessings on me. Blessings on blessings on me. Everywhere I go they’ll be—blessings on blessings on me. I can feel it.”
Yes, I can feel it!
Beyond Blessed🌺
And the countdown continues! THREE DAYS until Year52!🎉
Y’all, I am so grateful for life. I know I say this all the time, but I really don’t take my life for granted. I am so very grateful that I am still here and I’m healthy. I’m thankful for the love and kindness that surrounds me daily. I’m thankful for my babies, family, and friends. God, thank You for blessing me.
I pray that you have a beautiful self-love Saturday. Be sure to do something extra special for yourself, even if it’s just relaxing.♥️
I love you,
Shaun

During my adulthood, I have taken quite a few leaps of faith, some small and some life-changing. With each leap came challenges; however, all were so worth taking.
Six years ago, I mentioned that I took leaps while afraid. Well, baby, on this side of 50, nothing seems to frighten me—not sure if that’s a good or bad thing😅—I’m just out here going with the flow. I’m not sure what my next leap will be, but I do know that whatever it is, I’m doing it fearlessly because I know from years of experience that God will always be with me.♥️

Good Morning!☀️
I pray you’re doing well.🌸

I woke up this morning singing Charlie Wilson’s song, “I’m Blessed.” The song says—
“Ask me how I’m doing, I’m blessed, yes. Living every moment, no regrets. Smile upon my face, I’m like, oh yes, I’m blessed, yes. I’m blessed, yes. I’m blessed!”
Yesss… I am so very blessed. I am so grateful for God’s love, mercy, and grace. There’s nothing like it. Amen
Y’all, only FIVE days until my birthday!!🎉😄 I’m so excited! I’m even more excited because I get to see my baby girl today!!😆 Let the festivities begin! Year52 is loading!
I pray you have the greatest day yet! May it be filled with love, joy, peace, and laughter. You deserve it!♥️
I love you,
Shaun
**Fun fact: Many, many moons ago, when I was a little girl living in Kansas, we belonged to the same church as Charlie Wilson’s sister, Loretta. She had four or five boys and I had a crush on one. Those were the days. Good memories!
A few months ago, one of our fellow bloggers, Wynne Leon, shared a quote of questions by Henri Nouwen. I saved that quote because it resonated with my purpose of allowing God’s glory to shine through me. Every day, I strive to answer these questions, whether through my blog posts, posts on other social media platforms, or personal interactions.
Henri Nouwen’s Questions
Did I love?
Did I offer peace today?
Did I bring a smile to someone’s face?
Did I say words of healing?
Did I let go of my anger and resentment?
Did I forgive?
I pray that God’s glory is shining through me as I answer each question. If not, God, please guide me in doing so. Amen♥️

As I mentioned six years ago, “Never underestimate the power of gratitude.” There is something about gratitude that brings peace. The kind of peace that surpasses all understanding. Yes, that God peace. (Philippians 4:7)
Always, always, always remain grateful.♥️
I love you much,
Shaun
You don’t always have to live life on ten for it to be meaningful. Mellow moments are just as important and necessary. Be sure to find a nice balance between the two.
I hope you’re enjoying your day!♥️
Love you,
Shaun


I spent the last week at one of my sisters’ houses dog-sitting. It was planned months ago. However, little did I know I would need that time to sit and unwind. I needed the solitude. While there, I rarely turned on the television or watched anything on social media. It was just me, God, and Pepé (her dog).
It was there that I realized I have been blessed with a life that I continuously try to complicate by making this or that venture happen. The hustle and bustle that needed to happen happened on the other side of 50 including helping raise my siblings, raising my kids, and taking care of my mom until she passed. Yes, all of that happened on the other side of 50. So, now is my time to just be and care for me.
Don’t get me wrong, I still have the same aspirations and dreams, but I don’t have to neglect my well-being or peace to have them. Just like everything else God’s given me, they’ll come with time. I now understand that being able to enjoy life at my own pace is a gift, a gift that I am humbly accepting.♥️

Today’s affirmation:
I am God’s masterpiece. He divinely created me to fulfill His purpose.
I’m living in my truth. I am God’s masterpiece.♥️

Hello Sunday, and Happy Father’s Day to all the wonderful fathers out there. Know that you are loved and very much appreciated, not only for your financial support (because fathers are more than financial resources) but also for your love, wisdom, guidance, and for simply being YOU.
You are loved!♥️
