Who is Donna Noble? Okay, she is another one of 'The Doctor's companions, in fact, the third of the tenth doctor's reign, the second of the red headed companions (the first being Mel, from the era of the 6th and 7th doctors...the third, well, see Amy Pond and my earlier post, "the girl who waited").
So, tenth doctor seemed to portray a rather James Bond type of doctor, seemingly, undesirable to a few DW diehards, most likely, those of the male persuasion (huh?). So, up to this point, tenth doctor's companions seem to have a lust factor after him, as in with Martha's infatuation and, of course, the devotion of Rose. Yet, as we know, only one seemed to be able to crack the hard exterior of his heart and teach him a little of human affection and love, see: Rose Tyler.
But, Donna shared a different relationship with the Doctor, definitely not of attraction or any sort of interest. She pursued travelling with the Doctor for her own interests, to learn about all that was out there beyond her knowledge or human comprehension. To be pushed beyond her own understandings, thus developing into the person she needed to be. Because of this, she was his friend, there to keep him grounded and to insist on his doing the right thing at all costs. She also could see that he had a purpose in changing her life and helping her to become who she was meant to be.
In her friendship and travels with the doctor, more and more she became strengthened to use her natural talents to fight the evil approaching, not only those of her heart and compassion but the natural day-to-day abilities afforded to her. She was, as she quoted, able to do things based on her experience as a "temp"! Through this, she acquired the experience to forever be known and cherished as "Doctor Donna", in a sense, the Doctor's best friend. So, too, as we walk with our creator, we can know that we are his best friend and thus will be able to use the gifts he gave us for his glory and the salvation of the world.
Know that our "physician" has given us the talents and gifts to use for his glory and the working of truth and calling in our own lives and the lives of those we love!
What are they? Ask him and he will show you, even more, how to use them.
"For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them." Ephesians 2:10

Goal for the Day: Be a Rose Tyler!
Okay, so here we go again with another entry comparing my love for the Doctor and all things Doctor Who (and if you haven't discovered this show, you have one week to do so!), and comparing it to faith-based realities.
And the love of the Doctor is just what I want to focus on. Today, I look at one of the best, if not the most loved, companions: Rose Tyler (played by the very talented, Billie Piper!)
Rose, I think, set the standard for the archetype of companion and relationship with the Doctor for those that would come after her. Billie Piper, who played Rose, played the role in such a way that we, as the viewer, could relate in that we, and perhaps mostly female viewers, would react the same way upon knowing the Doctor so intimately.
Rose could put him in his place yet still be the object of his attention and adoration. She was the companion who first came close to touching his heart and showing him that he could love, not just objectively, but truly love someone. He showed her the kind of adoration and affection and connection that he had shown no other companion or traveler. In addition, she understood him the way no one else could and stood by him even when they were separated.
He burnt up an entire sun just to say good-bye to her; she told him she loved him, he cried, she cried--
He told Martha that she was not replacement for Rose...
She did everything she could to get back to this world, this reality, so she could, yes, help to save the world and the rest of the universe, but be with him again--
And, those she was working with, helped her to get back to him---
The point was, Rose was cherished, loved, and adored by the Doctor. So, too, we are cherished, loved, and adored by our "Physician", and that is what should inspire and encourage us to do the right thing, stand for truth, fight the good fight, walk the walk He calls us too--
In the face of all adversity, pitfalls, trials, remember we are Roses in God's eyes!
So, too, we should surround ourselves with people who can help us get to our love, remind us of the one who loves us above all, and we, too, should help to encourage them there is one that loves, cherishes, adores them--
Remember, people will let us down, even those closest to us, but there is one, our "Doctor", so to speak, who always will be there and is there, when we need him, who, in truth, loves us, cherishes us, adores us, and will go to great lengths to be with us---
So, in every thing you do, be a Rose Tyler! Accept the love and adoration of your beloved and let that be your saving grace that empowers you!
