In the United States and throughout the world, Rotarians open and close their meetings with the four-way test. This simple routine has bound Rotary members together and allowed so much good will for all. This is so simple and important:
OF THE THINGS we say or do:
1) Is it the TRUTH?
2) Is it FAIR to all concerned?
3) Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
4) Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?
If every elected official could be bound by this 4-way test, we would be living in a very different world.
If nothing else, the Rotary accomplishment of ridding the world of polio would be sufficient. But Rotarians never look back, but seek new challenges constantly.
It seems that far too many people swear allegiance to GREED! Webster describes greed as an “excessive desire of getting more wealth than one needs”, I don’t agree with that completely. Earning more is the award for all the efforts and work one does to achieve this accomplishment. My thought is: When does one cease fighting for more?
When I read in the newspapers about how Medicare has become a cornucopia to steal money, I was appalled. Again, the driving force is greed. There are so few rules or regulations in place that anyone can call themselves a DME dealer and solicit business. I know this will be a major topic at Medtrade.
But, there is much more scheduled at Medtrade, so please make sure you and your key personnel are there. It is just a very few weeks away until the doors of Medtrade are open - BE THERE!
