Easter Weekday
First Reading
Acts 16:11-15
11Setting sail therefore from Tro'as, we made a direct voyage to Sam'othrace, and the following day to Ne-ap'olis, 12and from there to Philip'pi, which is the leading city of the district of Macedo'nia, and a Roman colony. We remained in this city some days;  13and on the sabbath day we went outside the gate to the riverside, where we supposed there was a place of prayer; and we sat down and spoke to the women who had come together.  14One who heard us was a woman named Lydia, from the city of Thyati'ra, a seller of purple goods, who was a worshiper of God. The Lord opened her heart to give heed to what was said by Paul.  15And when she was baptized, with her household, she besought us, saying, "If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come to my house and stay." And she prevailed upon us. 
Responsorial Psalm
Psalms 149:1-6, 9
1Praise the LORD! Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise in the assembly of the faithful! 2Let Israel be glad in his Maker, let the sons of Zion rejoice in their King! 3Let them praise his name with dancing, making melody to him with timbrel and lyre! 4For the LORD takes pleasure in his people; he adorns the humble with victory. 5Let the faithful exult in glory; let them sing for joy on their couches. 6Let the high praises of God be in their throats and two-edged swords in their hands, 9to execute on them the judgment written! This is glory for all his faithful ones. Praise the LORD!
Gospel
John 15:26--16:4
1526But when the Counselor comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will bear witness to me;  27and you also are witnesses, because you have been with me from the beginning.161"I have said all this to you to keep you from falling away.  2They will put you out of the synagogues; indeed, the hour is coming when whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God.  3And they will do this because they have not known the Father, nor me.  4But I have said these things to you, that when their hour comes you may remember that I told you of them. "I did not say these things to you from the beginning, because I was with you.

I always wanted to shout my heart out. It's s been a while. I have so many issues having on my mind. My daughter is not listening to me but for a time she listens just a blink of time. I wanted to rest but my 2nd daughter needs me because she's only 8 months old. My husband also doesn't listen to any of what I say, he makes me feels like I'm stupid or that I talk nonsense. I need someone to talk to me, to listen to what I need to say. I'm also human I need love respect and trust and everything else more. I want to rest. I want to clear my mind. I want to be love. I want more of me. I want me.

Hey Tai here, Sometimes it's hard to find somebody to help. There's a lot of need out there in the world. The way I look at it, in the world with all the suffering, you've got to earn the right to drive a Rolls Royce by making sure you give back. I gave $500 to a homeless man and his dog once and he thanked me by saying  “there is a God.” Now some people would probably say he might use that money for drugs and alcohol, and there's some truth to that, but I don't know. At this point in my life I don't feel like it's my place to judge everything, figure everything out, and try to help. Some people use it the right way, some people abuse it, but for the people that do use it, at least people didn't hold back giving because of the people who do abuse it. You know what I mean? Plus with that guy, I kind of have a soft spot for dogs. He's got his dog, and hopefully he buys some dog food, vet bills. You know I feel like animals are a lot of times helples...

My favorite holiday is on Christmas Day worin I was in SOUTHWALES, UK. It’s like food is all over the place, gifts are everywhere, so abundant. I want to experience that again in my life right now with my family. As of now I am in the Philippines. I went to Southwales UK on December of 2009 til February of 2010. That was the most abundant experience I have had in my life. And that i didn’t think of anything thing none. I was enjoying everything, the place, the food, the event, and of course at that time i was with my mom and my sisters and my sisters children.
