Two-Day Game Warning: Almost the End of Regulation !
As I approach my Big Day (Public Dissertation Defense ) to complete my Doctor of Philosophy , my journey toward this ultimate goal may be drawing to a close while my next one toward my career advancement will begin.
However, my Ph.D. pursuit has helped me grow, not just professionally , but also personally , and most of all: spiritually . Furthermore, this undertaking couldn’t have been accomplished single-handedly: GOD’s grace provided, JESUS’ example was all-sided, and the HOLY SPIRIT’s light guided, in addition to Team Dr. D, who had my back. I forever will be grateful to the †Heavenly HOLY TRINITY† and my positive supporters here on Earth , who’ve rooted me on all the way , leading up to this Tuesday, December 8 ~ save-the-date
My next anticipated title this Advent : Tita Elaine .
We expect my future niece or nephew to arrive around CHRISTmas time ~ the very 1st grandchild of my parents , who recently celebrated their ♥wedding♥ anniversary . Yes, my family is very blessed . Regardless of these joyous times, I pray that we’ll always turn to the LORD , as we lead our lives here while preparing our eternal home in Heaven .
Sending peace and goodwill to San Bernadino, CA, in the wake of this terrorist tragedy. ✌
