Easter Weekday
First Reading
Acts 16:1-10
1And he came also to Derbe and to Lystra. A disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewish woman who was a believer; but his father was a Greek.  2He was well spoken of by the brethren at Lystra and Ico'nium.  3Paul wanted Timothy to accompany him; and he took him and circumcised him because of the Jews that were in those places, for they all knew that his father was a Greek.  4As they went on their way through the cities, they delivered to them for observance the decisions which had been reached by the apostles and elders who were at Jerusalem.  5So the churches were strengthened in the faith, and they increased in numbers daily. 6And they went through the region of Phry'gia and Galatia, having been forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia.  7And when they had come opposite My'sia, they attempted to go into Bithyn'ia, but the Spirit of Jesus did not allow them;  8so, passing by My'sia, they went down to Tro'as.  9And a vision appeared to Paul in the night: a man of Macedo'nia was standing beseeching him and saying, "Come over to Macedo'nia and help us."  10And when he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go on into Macedo'nia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel to them. 
Responsorial Psalm
Psalms 100:1-3, 5
1Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the lands! 2Serve the LORD with gladness! Come into his presence with singing! 3Know that the LORD is God! It is he that made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. 5For the LORD is good; his steadfast love endures for ever, and his faithfulness to all generations.
Gospel
John 15:18-21
18"If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you.  19If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. 20Remember the word that I said to you, `A servant is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also.  21But all this they will do to you on my account, because they do not know him who sent me

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.
