Continue with my summer vacation 2010 escapade in Mine's View, Baguio City. This is one of the popular tourist attraction in Baguio city. Before there were people below the cliff who are waiting for you to toss some coins for them. But now very seldom to see the. What i like most in Mine's view is the beautiful over looking.
You can have a souvenir picture with the native and wearing their dress for some small amount.
Water is one of the most important need in our daily life. According to today's Gospel “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again,14but whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”
Let us continue read the gospel.
New International Version
5So he came to a town in Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of ground Jacob had given to his son Joseph.6Jacob’s well was there, and Jesus, tired as he was from the journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.
7When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Will you give me a drink?”8(His disciples had gone into the town to buy food.)
9The Samaritan woman said to him, “You are a Jew and I am a Samaritan woman. How can you ask me for a drink?” (For Jews do not associate with Samaritans.a)
10Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.”
11“Sir,” the woman said, “you have nothing to draw with and the well is deep. Where can you get this living water? 12Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did also his sons and his flocks and herds?”
13Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again,14but whoever drinks the water I give him will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give him will become in him a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”
15The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water so that I won’t get thirsty and have to keep coming here to draw water.”
16He told her, “Go, call your husband and come back.”
Jesus said to her, “You are right when you say you have no husband.18The fact is, you have had five husbands, and the man you now have is not your husband. What you have just said is quite true.”
19“Sir,” the woman said, “I can see that you are a prophet. 20Our fathers worshiped on this mountain, but you Jews claim that the place where we must worship is in Jerusalem.”
21Jesus declared, “Believe me, woman, a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.22You Samaritans worship what you do not know; we worship what we do know, for salvation is from the Jews. 23Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. 24God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.”
25The woman said, “I know that Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming. When he comes, he will explain everything to us.”
26Then Jesus declared, “I who speak to you am he.”
The Disciples Rejoin Jesus
27Just then his disciples returned and were surprised to find him talking with a woman. But no one asked, “What do you want?” or “Why are you talking with her?”
28Then, leaving her water jar, the woman went back to the town and said to the people,29“Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Christb?” 30They came out of the town and made their way toward him.
31Meanwhile his disciples urged him, “Rabbi, eat something.”
32But he said to them, “I have food to eat that you know nothing about.”
33Then his disciples said to each other, “Could someone have brought him food?”
34“My food,” said Jesus, “is to do the will of him who sent me and to finish his work.35Do you not say, ‘Four months more and then the harvest’? I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest. 36Even now the reaper draws his wages, even now he harvests the crop for eternal life, so that the sower and the reaper may be glad together. 37Thus the saying ‘One sows and another reaps’ is true. 38I sent you to reap what you have not worked for. Others have done the hard work, and you have reaped the benefits of their labor.”
Many Samaritans Believe
39Many of the Samaritans from that town believed in him because of the woman’s testimony, “He told me everything I ever did.” 40So when the Samaritans came to him, they urged him to stay with them, and he stayed two days. 41And because of his words many more became believers.
42They said to the woman, “We no longer believe just because of what you said; now we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man really is the Savior of the world.” source biblos

Part 3 Summer Vacation 2010 - Baguio Transient House
This was our last year family summer vacation in Baguio City. After enjoying the picture taking at the Lion Head, in Kannon Road. We rented one transient home in Ambuklao Area. The place is so cool and quiet. It is few kilometers away from the city. Surrounded by pine trees. You can smell the early morning breeze.
1After six days Jesus took with him Peter, James and John the brother of James, and led them up a high mountain by themselves. 2There he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light. 3Just then there appeared before them Moses and Elijah, talking with Jesus.
4Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you wish, I will put up three shelters—one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.”
5While he was still speaking, a bright cloud enveloped them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!”
6When the disciples heard this, they fell facedown to the ground, terrified. 7But Jesus came and touched them. “Get up,” he said. “Don’t be afraid.”8When they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus.
9As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus instructed them, “Don’t tell anyone what you have seen, until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead.”

Banco Filipino Subok Na Matibay, Subok Na Matatag?
Banco Filipino Subok Na Matibay, Subok Na Matatag! Happy Savers Club. Do you remember this slogan from Banco Filipino. I am one of the happy saver club member when I was 8 years old. For those who fond of San Rio in the early 80's.
The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) on March 17, 2011 ordered the closure of Banco Filipino Savings and Mortgage Bank and placed it under the receivership of state-run Philippine Deposit Insurance Corp. (PDIC), saying its liabilities topped its assets by P8.4 billion. wikipedia
These past few days ay nagsara ang mga Banco Filipino branches. Depositors can not withdraw from the ATM machine. Banco Filipino and Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) keep pointing to one another. Technically the poor depositors have no idea what are they talking about. Ang mahalaga sa kanila ay natiwala sila sa Banco Filipino. Now that they need their money who will be responsible?
I hope that the Banco Filipino and Banco Sentral ng Pilipinas will solve this issue as soon as possible. Sana hindi na sila magsara ulit. So that the legacy of Banco Filipino will continue.

Thank God it's another bright Saturday morning. Not literally bright, because the fact that today is a bit cloudy day and cold here in Al Khobar. After week of hearing the news of the rage. In general everything was under control. Although I spent the whole day at home yesterday, well for safety reason.
Good morning everybody! Friday is a like Sunday here in Saudi Arabia. Not like other Fridays that I used to go for biking around the city or along the bay. But today I rather stay at home and do my laundry. Cook my lunch and watching movies. Of course chatting with my family.
Outside is so calm and quiet. I hope and pray that after this day it will be the same fine day. Have a nice day everyone. God bless us!

The Lord's Prayer
Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name.
Your Kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as in heaven
Give us today our daily bread.
Forgive us our sins,
as we forgive those who sin against us.
Lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.
For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours.
It look like a butterfly at a glance, but it's a flower. I don't know what kind of flower are those. I appreciate most if anyone could help me to name them. Thank you and have a Happy Monday
The Wise and Foolish Builders - Sunday Gospel March 6
21“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ 23Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’
The Wise and Foolish Builders
24“Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. 26But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash.”
Good news to our OFW kababayan who were displaced from conflict in Libya. Libyan Dinar can be exchanged to Peso at the Banko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) in Manila's Headquarter and regional offices starting today March 3.
After experiencing the hardship of escaping the trauma from the conflict in Libya. As they arrived this last few days the Libyan currency is dropping and some money changer not accept the Libyan money.
The initial maximum equally to dinar amount is only P10,000. The Monetary Board approved this facility to help our kababayan OFW returning from the conflict in Libya.
