Remember, life is what you make it. I have chosen to make mine beautiful. God has been too good to me for me not to. I am blessed.
Created on June 21, 2021.
These next three days—the final of my jubilee year—I plan to be intentional about cherishing moments. Not for pictures. Not to write about. But to make sure God knows I am truly grateful for the life, family, opportunities, and things He’s blessed me with. Because y’all, there is no doubt about it, I amtruly blessed.🌺
Wishing you a wonderful day and beautifully, blessed weekend. Love you!♥️
Hey Y’all! I am only one week away from one of the greatest dates of my life… MY BIRTHDAY!!!🎉🎉🎉
Almost 51! God is soooo amazing! Never, ever imagined being 50. I’m in awe. Grateful and blessed.🌺
Year51 is right around the corner. Smiling because this year, Year50, my Jubilee year, has probably been one of my most interesting years yet—spiritually. Never knew I needed the spiritual awakening I received. This awakening has been the driving force behind so many life changing experiences—mentally, emotionally, financially, physically, etc. Y’all, I am not sure what Year51, or this side of 50, holds; however, I do know this past year was preparation for the rest.
Humbled
Grateful
Blessed
Cheers to the final week of my Jubilee year. It’s been real… for real!
Praying you have a beautifully, blessed week as we celebrate this last week of my Jubilee year. Yes, we. I am inviting you along. Let’s celebrate!🎉
Love you always,
Shaun
If you haven’t noticed by now, I create my own excitement.Always have and always will. Smile♥️
Here’s another memory about timing. Smiling because even after I made this post six years ago, I still had more deadlines and things I wanted to accomplish by age 50. Now, everything I said back in 2018 about releasing it all, is true. No more deadlines. Everything will happen when it’s time. Although I can’t see myself being an elder and finally fulfilling certain dreams, so many others have had to wait to see their dreams come to fruition and they are doing quite well. Which means I’m going to be just fine. What’s meant to happen will happen. My job is to enjoy every moment of the here and now. Smiling
Facebook Memory: June 3, 2018
Good Morning! Trust God’s timing. I used to create deadlines. Deadlines are good for work projects, but can be horrible for your personal life. I had a deadline for everything- when I wanted to have my first child, my second child, get married and so on. Well, I got all of those things by my deadline. However, I wasn’t ready for what I received. God sent warning signs but I overrode each one so that it would fit my timing, my deadline.
A few years ago, I let go of the deadlines. I decided to leave it ALL in God’s hand and to actually heed the warnings. Needless to say, nothing happened as I’d planned. NOTHING! But the BEST part of it all was God’s timing was ALWAYS on point! I look back over the years and see where I was about to make another decision based on FEAR of missing an opportunity, or a deadline I set for myself years ago (those young adult deadlines), and God said WAIT.. BE STILL! I waited and things turned out better than I’d ever imagined. For real! Y’all just don’t know how grateful I am that I listened.
Now this year- 2018- this year has been rough. All of “my” deadlines have been thrown aside. Yes, I went back to setting deadlines. I’m human. Lol! Now I’m back to trusting God’s timing. I already KNOW that the outcome will be so much better that what I’ve planned. Amen!
Best advice– “Be still and wait!” Don’t rush a thing. God knows best.
Two events on my timeline that I set when I was around 19 or 20—that I was adamant about—was having my first child at 21 and the second by 30. Well, at the time that they were conceived I had already changed my mind; however, it happened anyway. Yes, they happened and they’re the best gifts I could have added to my timeline. Never knew how important they would be in my life. God is good. Even when I had changed my mind, He already had a plan for that ask.
Well, let me get moving. This month I’m not in a rush to do anything. So my posts will happen sporadically, no specific time frame. I will try to post them somewhat around the same times (will try to schedule them), but my mind is on vacation (wish I was physically) and things will get done at my leisure. I ain’t stressing none this month. Laughing
June is finally here!! As usual, I’m celebrating ALL month long! Might even carry it over into July! I’m pretty sure I’ll celebrate the entire summer when I turn 50. Baby, I’m ready!!! Oh… and just wait til I turn 100!!!! Whew!!💃🏽💃🏽💃🏽

Thought this memory was kind of cute. As you can see, I mentioned that for my 50th birthday I would celebrate the entire summer. Never imagined I would celebrate the entire year. Lol. Now I have to figure out how I’ll celebrate my 100th.
Well, the celebration for Year51 has already begun, and I am enjoying every minute of it.
Listen, this final month of Year50 I am intentionally living it to my fullest. Today, I am letting my hair down and letting Charlene (I also named my hair years ago—Donna inspired) do her thing!! Charlene, do you because you’re 50 too! Yes, I am intentionally enjoying this last month. Blocking any and everything that tries to stop it.
It’s Shaun’s World
