Happy President’s Day!
Here’s a tribute to my personal favorite Commander-in-Chief, Ronald Reagan , whose 105th birthday would’ve been earlier this month ~ as well as to the Challenger Crew, whose crash took place just over three decades ago …

Pope Francis take * on how home influences our faith [my commentary in brackets]:
“Faith opens a ‘window’ to the presence and working of the Spirit. It shows us that, like happiness, holiness is always tied to little gestures.
‘Whoever gives you a cup of water in my name will not go unrewarded,’ Jesus says (Mark 9:41).
“These little gestures are those we learn at home, in the family; they get lost amid all the other things we do, yet they do make each day different. They are the quiet things done by mothers and grandmothers, by fathers and grandfathers , by children, by brothers and sisters . They are little signs of tenderness, affection, and compassion.
“Like the warm supper we look forward to at night [my mom ‘s homecooking ], the early meal awaiting someone who gets up early to go to work [my dad ‘s coffee ].
“Homely gestures.
“Love is shown by little things, by attention to small daily signs that make us feel at home. Faith grows when it is lived and shaped by love. That is why our families, our homes, are true domestic churches. They are the right place for faith to become life and life to grow in faith.”
*Pope Francis in the U.S.: Words of Mercy and Hope (2015), Daughters of St. Paul, pp. 22-23 ~ as said at the Closing Mass of the Eighth World Meeting of Families , Benjamin Franklin Parkway, Philadelphia, PA, Sunday, September 27, 2015.
^– I actually used this passage as my pre-brunch prayer of grace with my parents today! –^
Bearing in mind these homely gestures, let’s also consider our cultures and upbringings…
Have you ever wondered why your parents act the way they do then realize that you’re turning out more like them as you grow up?

Happy 17th Birthday to Rey-Rey , my beloved GODdaughter Reyanna mañana!

Happy Feast Day of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton
This educator was my favorite saint growing up. In my own childhood Catechism class , I first heard this ♪song♫ (Matthew 6:33 ) when we watched a video about her life…
VIDEO
With my own dreams of helping establish a Ca†holic school in my hometown, I look to St. Elizabeth for inspiration and seek her intercession.

As I reached my ultimate goal for this role of Dr. Dispo and approach my next one ~ Tita Elaine ~ I’ve been reminiscing all Advent season-long about those who are important to me, especially my parents ~ who are counting down ’til grandparenthood …
my dad, Papa Jun
taught me how to compute basic math before I learned it in grade school
helped me with my Election Day political party coloring map in 6th grade
caught and froze insects for my bug collection assignment in 7th grade
took me to my first speech tournaments in 7th and 8th grade
coached me on the sidelines for my tennis matches in 8th grade
told me that he’d support me 100% when I applied for my doctorate
shopped with me for my presentation materials for my public defense
my mom, Mami Aya
taught me how to read at the tender age of two ~ which helped me articulate
wore sweet-smelling perfume that inspired my own fondness for fragrances
worked out to exercise videos ~ which spurred me on to publish about them
pointed out to me that my conduct affects my own relationships
my sister, Joanne birth to her first child (boy or girl?)
my mentor, Bishop Mike
my bestie, Evie
This handful of special people were my starting five for Team Dr. D, out of a league of supporters throughout my Ph.D. GOD was the commissioner who made sure that I kept going while staying true to Him and myself …

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. ✌

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 !

♪Happy ☼Birthday☼♫ to my Dad today!
Go, *Dallas Cowboys *
Just like any fortunate child who has grown up with a father or paternal figure, I feel extremely †blessed† and grateful to still have mine as a constant part of my life.
Papa Jun is one of the most well-rounded people who I know and admire:
Even as an adult, I still keep learning from my Dad, who always enlightens me everyday, through his example and his wisdom as a prayerful soon-to-be first-time grandfather with whom I attended Church today. Cheers, Pops!
Maligayang Bati, Papa Jun , at ♥Mahal♥ Kita!

As I prepare for my service to our Church as commentator *** today, I continue to seek the Holy Spirit ‘s guidance .
Dr. Grassi Guts, Grace & Glory approaches scripture like a linebacker* ~ so I’ll do the same, per these positions:
Stance ~ “starts with the right foundation”
So then, anyone who hears these words of mine and obeys them is like a wise man who built his house on rock. The rain poured down, the rivers flooded over, and the wind blew hard against that house. But it did not fall, because it was built on rock. But anyone who hears these words of mine and does not obey them is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain poured down, the rivers flooded over, the wind blew hard against that house, and it fell. And what a terrible fall that was!
~ Matthew 7:24-27
Alignment ~ line up with the right people
Keep company with the wise and you will become wise. If you make friends with stupid people, you will be ruined.
~ Proverbs 13:20
Do not be fooled. “Bad companions ruin good character.”
~ I Corinthians 15:33
Christ’s message in all its richness must live in your hearts. Teach and instruct one another with all wisdom. Sing psalms, hymns, and sacred songs; sing to God with thanksgiving in your hearts.
~ Colossians 3:16
So Jesus said to those who believed him, “If you obey my teaching, you are really my disciples; you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
~ John 8:31-32
