President’s Message

Dear Centro Ladies,

We are a few months into the rotary year. Today marks the governor’s visit and induction, one of the event high-lights of a club for the year. As we start our Rotarian Year with our new set of officers, I hope that we all be reminded that not only leaders, but all members as well, are im-portant in the achievement of our goals and objectives of being a true ROTARIAN. Just like what Mother Teresa said, "It's not how much we give, but how much love we put into giving".

Preparations are on the way for several projects and every-body’s participation is needed to make these projects a suc-cess. As we work to create light for others, we naturally light our own way -- that is truly Rotary Serving Humanity.

Yours in Rotary,

All Star President

Evs Laranga

Editorial

What does it mean to be a Rotarian?

When I joined the Rotary Club of Sta. Rosa Centro three years ago, I didn’t

even do preliminary research on what it is or what it stands for. I joined simp-

ly because of a friend’s prodding.

So now I know that it is about “service above self”. After 3 years into the

organization, I asked myself, have I learned the ways of being a rotarian? It

is the sort of question a Rotarian should ask.

My answer to the question on whether I have lived the motto of “service

above self” would not have been a resounding Yes, but a tentative one as I

have not done anything huge for the community. There are a few things I

did to help but honestly, these are things which I might not have never ac-

complished alone.

But putting the motto into a different perspective, it could also mean main-

taining high ethical standards in one’s business, one’s profession, and in

one’s personal life. That I can answer with a resounding Yes, I did. If this

was the only criteria for being a good rotarian, then I can readily say that

being a rotarian is my way of life.

Being a Rotarian also means having the opportunity to experience the warm

fellowship of a Rotary Club and I have experienced that too. An introvert like

me would have found this difficult but I have a few times, joined fellowships.

Three years is probably too short to make a conclusion on how effective one

has been as a rotarian, for my case at least. At the end of the day, what

matters is to enjoy and benefit from all that Rotary has to offer.

Reflections

“Our success or failure will not depend upon the

machinery of Rotary or its physical growth, but

upon the extent to which Rotary’s ideals or

objectives are translated into positive, tangible

results in personal, business, community, and

international life. We shall be known by our

works.” — The Second Quarter Century, THE

ROTARIAN, July 1930
