"FILIPINOS CELEBRATING CHRISTMAS AFTER YOLANDA"

By Aellen Ross Daileg

Christmas is a holiday celebrated by all the people in the world.people give gifts and christmas cards to their love ones and "Aguinaldo"from every godparent's godchildren.it's a time to celebrate christ's birth.when it's christmas,the world is merry.but how can filipinos celebrate christmas after a disaster?
Last november 8,2013,typhoon haiyan or as we call it in the philippines "yolanda"landed on our country particularly in the visayas.typhoon yolanda literally left the whole island destroyed. A total of 5,796 people were killed after the storm surge.people from around the world and filipinos themselves felt weak and others also cried after witnessing the typhoon yolanda devastated visayas.Grieve from each and everyone's faces are clearly shown.Many lost their loved ones,their houses and homes,nothing really left.
How can they celebrate christmas?can they still celebrate christmas?
A lot of people from other countries and filipinos themselves o
ffered help to the people who were affected by the typhoon.some cancelled their christmas parties;instead,they spent their time and days volunteering for relief goods operations.it warms our hearts and we know,people from visayas are very thankful to all the people who have helped them and are still helping them to stand up and start a new life.
This way,helping other people is a way of celebrating this season of LOVE - CHRISTMAS that may soon put into every face of the victims a smile to world again.
"do services,even if it is in a simple way,love others more as you love god and yourself,one of the reasons we are here on earth is to strengthen our faith.difficult,dark days are a necessary part of life and give us an opportunity to build our faith more stronger.
the time is come w/us,so we nef to already conpess our sins.
"message of 1 of the typhoon victims from visayas.lds.member
thank you for all,thank you for a new start,thank for a new memories,and time to move forward"
hope i inspire you all guys
bye.

Priscilla Pringle's Predicament - Reader's Theater at Lethbridge Whoop-U...

This week was quite fun for me because I got to portray the main antagonist in a Reader's Theater called 'Priscilla Pringle's Predicament/All's Swell That Ends Swell' that Playgoers of Lethbridge put on at Lethbridge Whoop-Up Days 2017. The story was written by Ed Bayly, a truly wonderful individual. Doing the performances all week reminded me of how much I love participating in theater. Please enjoy this recording! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIh88Y5H3cI&t=1135s

"Around and around" by Isidro Zapata on the #mormonysablogs Official Website

Around & around we go trying to fill a void in our hearts, so around & around we go, trying to fill a void in our hearts, The Son of Man's compassion, passion and grace step in, to fill the void holding us tenderly, by his love and grace Jesus will never let us go So around and around our love grows hard to walk away from such love Jesus is the only way to live a life of bliss So around and around our love grows Jesus gave his life for you and me Wiping away every tear showing you grace from above now that is true love So around and around our love grows to the one who laid down his life so we can live a life of bliss hard to walk away from such love so around and around our love grows to him who laid down his life for you and me CR2016-01-04 iz

"In the era before the Avatar, we bent not the elements, but the energies within ourselves." -A giant Lion Turtle Avatar the Last Airbender was one of my favorite shows when I was but a lad, which was about a year ago... If you haven't seen it, then you have missed out, cause they're already on the second series, season, whatever you wanna call it, but it's on Netflix so there's that. "Are you sure you're not talking about the Blue cat people?" I'm positive... I mean, it was just great, BUT, much like Pokemon, it was one of those shows, that you watch and you get sad cause you're like, "Why can't I do that?" So it was sort of bittersweet. Anyway, what I'm trying to get at, is that it's great. "You really liked it huh?" Chyea, I was thinking about it the other day and something hit me... I think it was a Dragonfly, cause let me tell you, that thing was HUGE and it hurt... But then I realized something.
