My first order of business as Dr. Dispo :
Give to the poor.
This is GOD ‘s callingHoly Father , Pope Francis spiritual mentor , Bishop Mike through Him , to the people .
How will you help ?
For the past few CHRISTmas es, to follow in the example of the blessed birthday celebrant , JESUS Angel Tree children and am donating more to the Salvation Army today after my Holy Hour .

And if we really are poor ~ in health, spirit, or otherwise ~ let us seek the LORD for strength to overcome.

We can’t go wrong with positive reinforcement …
Childhood Examples
Lately, rewarding myself helps ease the toughness of a rigorous project !
Adult Examples
Great timing since I just progressed onto my next series !

Remember that I have commanded you to be determined and confident ! Do not be afraid or discouraged, for I, the †LORD† your GOD , am with you wherever you go.
~ Joshua 1:9 *
Bishop Mike †cross† for renewed hope , ♥love♥ and trust ~ sent me this beautiful †cross† that was blessed by Pope Francis *Stateside* visit !
I received this generous gift from my spiritual mentor in great timing: the day before my latest conference call with my professor ** to practice my dissertation defense ~ in which I advanced to my first committee defense (preliminary presentation to my professors on board)! This reminds me of how the Bishop has always come through for me ~ particularly when he gave me the Holy Spirit Master’s degree almost a decade ago!
He will not let you down.
~ Bishop Mike

Don’t you just love exercise 💸incentives?
My most recent reward🏆 came from ⌚️RunKeeper : Saucony 🌞Sunday !
🏁fun run👣 around the 🎓university🏤 campus course⛳️ (2 full miles = 1 lap), I earned new 👟kicks! Pretty slick, huh?
high school and college , I sold💰 shoes (not like the Married with Children dad, Al Bundy) ~ so I knew my footwear👞 like the back of my 👋🏽hand, and it didn’t hurt to have those perks☕️ of test-driving🚘 …
Or running in them!
These Canadian🇨🇦 Running prize winners that I selected are in a kid’s size ~ so I could $ave over half👊🏽 of the original comparable women’s pair of shoes, while still having the competitive ISO feature!
Previously, I also scored more fitness rewards:
Moral of this story:
We might as well 💝gift🎁 ourselves in our health💪🏽 by adding on to that wellness😅 📳wealth!

April Showers ☔️ bring:
MORE May Showers! ⚡️
My dad grows beautiful blossoms🌸 in his 🌳garden . Now they’re in full 🌺bloom. This is great timing⏰ with my mom’s 🎈celebrations🎁 this month.
After Mother’s Day, Mami Aya asked Papa Jun not to give her anymore 🌹roses. She meant flowers in general, but since she wasn’t clear…
birthday ! 🌻
While my Nanay appreciated his always kind gestures, she passed along the bouquet💐 to someone more deserving …

During this ♥Valentine’s♥ week
Hello Kitty ♥Valentine’s♥ bow handcrafted by mi comadre Mona
I had 2 marriage proposals this past Wednesday alone
and a slew of gifts from my †GOD†-sent students then and yesterday !
Hence, the perks of being a single teacher
With ♥Valentine’s♥ weekend ahead
I look forward to
reaping the rewards of my photography and reporting career
by capturing ♥Valentine’s♥ babies on camera mañana
♪Ring around the Rosies♫
and covering Claudie Royals birthday banquet this ☼Sunday☼
♫Pocket full of Posies♪
†GOD† has blessed me abundantly
by always being by my side
and bringing me ♥Valentines♥ who charm, warm, touch and move my ♥heart♥
Sniff, sniff: Annie
After all …
Take delight in the †LORD†, and he will give you the desires of your ♥heart♥.
~ Psalm 37:4
