Yet, there's an unescapable truth we all face: we're mortal, and our time here is limited. This realization should not be seen as a grim or morbid fact, but instead as a catalyst for positive change.</p><h4>Recognizing Our Mortality</h4><p>First, we must face the fact that life is fragile and uncertain. Pretending that we are invincible serves no one. It might create a false sense of security, but it often leads to a lack of focus and purpose in our lives.</p><h4>Living a Purposeful Life</h4><p>Once we accept our mortality, we can start to build a life that is both intentional and meaningful. What are your passions, your goals, your dreams? What impact do you want to make in the world? By answering these questions, you can structure your life in a way that aligns with your true values and aspirations.</p><h4>The Importance of Relationships</h4><p>Understanding that our time is limited also leads us to value our relationships more. Investing time in friends, family, and loved ones becomes more significant. After all, it is the connections we forge with others that often provide the most lasting and satisfying fulfillment in life.</p><h4>Taking Risks and Embracing Opportunities</h4><p>The realization that life is fleeting may also push us to take risks and seize opportunities we might otherwise overlook. With the acknowledgment that we don't have forever, there comes a new willingness to step outside our comfort zones, to learn, grow, and experience new things.</p><h3>Conclusion</h3><p>Facing our mortality is not a bleak or depressing exercise; it's an empowering one. It helps us see life for what it truly is: a finite, precious opportunity to make a difference, to connect with others, and to live with intention and joy. By embracing our mortality, we can lead lives filled with meaning, love, and adventure.</p>Meric Marahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08600602181044478696noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30857254.post-30952449418839892022023-08-10T17:55:00.001+08:002023-08-10T17:55:02.699+08:00Co-Chairman: Shcool Governance Council<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwc5kD2kyMhTWz_Pr4hXsa76_EQ-vA08-8iLVTx2W1r51ePSpsG8oHUiKoRXOcDAi5YWOBs9eIku8ghHpOkCPptXhLcm45J7B3vhVOEX4l9wtNAO3s9RUuSG-M52vPr-TUisDZQ9Sft8ivqD7LQA_GeIKi3IwWBhNW93P5m09RzcuUwtt_n96K/s2048/364247760_663758292319501_7433908146631711200_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="489" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwc5kD2kyMhTWz_Pr4hXsa76_EQ-vA08-8iLVTx2W1r51ePSpsG8oHUiKoRXOcDAi5YWOBs9eIku8ghHpOkCPptXhLcm45J7B3vhVOEX4l9wtNAO3s9RUuSG-M52vPr-TUisDZQ9Sft8ivqD7LQA_GeIKi3IwWBhNW93P5m09RzcuUwtt_n96K/w367-h489/364247760_663758292319501_7433908146631711200_n.jpg" width="367" /></a></div><br /> <p></p>Meric Marahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08600602181044478696noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30857254.post-67465244831273977272023-07-16T18:09:00.004+08:002023-07-16T18:09:55.549+08:00 Loop-us with LUPUS <p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen="" class="BLOG_video_class" height="365" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/6hfFIz6PTBs" width="439" youtube-src-id="6hfFIz6PTBs"></iframe></div><br /><p></p>Meric Marahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08600602181044478696noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30857254.post-3310396131459769232023-07-10T01:45:00.003+08:002023-07-10T01:45:24.425+08:00 "Responsibility and Respect: Navigating Small Issues in the Rotary Club"<p> "Responsibility and Respect: Navigating Small Issues in the Rotary Club"</p><p>By Meric Mara</p><p>The Rotary Club is a global organization that is dedicated to making a positive impact on the world by providing service to others. As members of this organization, we have a great deal of power and influence, and it is our responsibility to use that power wisely and for the benefit of others. With great power comes great responsibility, as the saying goes, and it is important that we keep this in mind as we go about our work.</p><p>One of the challenges that the Rotary Club faces is the issue of small issues or misunderstandings that can arise between members. These issues can easily escalate if they are not dealt with quickly and effectively, and they can have a negative impact on the organization as a whole. However, with respect and good communication, these issues can be resolved in a way that benefits everyone involved.</p><p>It is important for us to check our values on service to others and to ensure that our interpretation of those values aligns with the Rotary Club's mission. We must always strive to be good servants to all, treating each other with respect and dignity, and working together to achieve our goals.</p><p>One way to promote good communication and resolve misunderstandings is to create an open and inclusive environment where everyone feels comfortable expressing their opinions and ideas. This can be done through regular meetings, brainstorming sessions, and other forms of collaborative work.</p><p>In addition, it is important to listen to one another with an open mind and a willingness to learn. By doing so, we can gain a better understanding of each other's perspectives and work together more effectively.</p><p>At the same time, we must also be willing to take responsibility for our actions and to hold ourselves accountable for our mistakes. This can be a difficult thing to do, but it is an essential part of being a good leader and a responsible member of the Rotary Club.</p><p>The phrase "With great power comes great responsibility" is an important reminder of the role that we play as members of the Rotary Club. By promoting good communication, treating each other with respect, and staying true to our values of service to others, we can overcome small issues and misunderstandings and work together to make a positive impact on the world.</p><div><br /></div>Meric Marahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08600602181044478696noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30857254.post-19445383132952440972023-07-10T01:45:00.002+08:002023-07-10T01:45:12.649+08:00Intrinsic worth and instrumental value<p> When talking about value, always remember this:</p><div class="" dir="auto"><div class="x1iorvi4 x1pi30zi x1l90r2v x1swvt13" data-ad-comet-preview="message" data-ad-preview="message" id=":r9q:"><div class="x78zum5 xdt5ytf xz62fqu x16ldp7u"><div class="xu06os2 x1ok221b"><span class="x193iq5w xeuugli x13faqbe x1vvkbs xlh3980 xvmahel x1n0sxbx x1lliihq x1s928wv xhkezso x1gmr53x x1cpjm7i x1fgarty x1943h6x xudqn12 x3x7a5m x6prxxf xvq8zen xo1l8bm xzsf02u x1yc453h" dir="auto"><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a"><div dir="auto">"Intrinsic worth and instrumental value walk hand in hand.

Here, I will discuss each of these qualities in detail:</p><p class="p1" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><br /></p><ol class="ol1"><li class="li1" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Payment of dues on time: The payment of dues is an essential aspect of being a Rotarian. These funds are critical for supporting the various service projects that Rotary undertakes and help to ensure that the organization can continue its vital work. Paying dues on time demonstrates a commitment to the Rotary cause and a willingness to contribute to the success of the organization.</li><li class="li1" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Giving time with your co-members: One of the most valuable resources that Rotarians can offer is their time. Whether it be through volunteering for service projects, attending meetings and events, or working with other members of the club, giving your time is essential for creating a strong and effective Rotary community. Building relationships with other members of the club is also important for fostering a sense of camaraderie and teamwork.</li><li class="li1" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Sharing ideas in service to others: Rotary is all about service, and sharing ideas for projects that can make a positive impact in the community is critical for creating successful initiatives. Being willing to share your expertise and experience with other members of the club can help to generate new and innovative ideas, leading to more effective service projects that make a real difference in people's lives.</li><li class="li1" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Attending meetings regularly: Attending meetings regularly is another essential aspect of being a good Rotarian. Meetings provide an opportunity for members to connect, share ideas, and stay up to date on the latest developments within the organization. Regular attendance at meetings also demonstrates a commitment to the Rotary cause and helps to ensure that the club can function effectively.</li><li class="li1" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Passion for Service: At the heart of Rotary is a commitment to service, and this is perhaps the most important trait of a good Rotarian. A passion for service means being willing to give of your time, talents, and resources to help those in need, whether it be in your local community or in far-flung corners of the world. This passion can be infectious, inspiring others to join in the effort to make a positive impact.</li><li class="li1" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Strong Ethics: Rotarians are known for their high ethical standards, and this is another trait that is critical to being a good Rotarian. Strong ethics mean being honest, transparent, and accountable in all your dealings, whether it be in your personal or professional life. It means doing the right thing, even when it's difficult, and standing up for what you believe in.</li><li class="li1" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">Commitment to Collaboration: Finally, a good Rotarian is someone who understands the power of collaboration. Rotary is built on the idea that we can achieve more together than we can alone, and this requires a willingness to work with others from diverse backgrounds and perspectives. A commitment to collaboration means being open-minded, respectful, and inclusive, and recognizing that everyone has something valuable to contribute.</li></ol><p class="p1" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;"><br /></p><p class="p1" style="font-family: "Helvetica Neue"; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: normal; font-variant-east-asian: normal; font-variant-numeric: normal; line-height: normal; margin: 0px;">By embodying these qualities, Rotarians can help to create a strong and effective Rotary community that is dedicated to making a positive impact in the world.</p>Meric Marahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08600602181044478696noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30857254.post-76144221349157772882023-03-05T17:11:00.004+08:002023-03-05T17:11:55.685+08:00 Global Change Maker in Information Technology<p> </p><div class="" dir="auto"><div class="x1iorvi4 x1pi30zi x1swvt13 x1l90r2v" data-ad-comet-preview="message" data-ad-preview="message" id="jsc_c_st"><div class="x78zum5 xdt5ytf xz62fqu x16ldp7u"><div class="xu06os2 x1ok221b"><span class="x193iq5w xeuugli x13faqbe x1vvkbs xlh3980 xvmahel x1n0sxbx x1lliihq x1s928wv xhkezso x1gmr53x x1cpjm7i x1fgarty x1943h6x xudqn12 x3x7a5m x6prxxf xvq8zen xo1l8bm xzsf02u x1yc453h" dir="auto"><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xdj266r x126k92a"><div dir="auto">Dear Yes You Can International Group,</div><div dir="auto"><br /></div></div><div class="x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs xtlvy1s x126k92a"><div dir="auto">I am beyond grateful to receive the award for Global Change Maker in Information Technology from your esteemed organization.
