It had been quite a long time that I went blogging. Now, inspiration visits my humble self. I am back to the writing keyboard. This time it's about http://labason.ning.com created and crafted by a son of my schoolmate, Nonoy Daguplo at Ferrer High (Now St. Mary College)in Labason,ZN. He is Gary Gabrielle Recentes Daguplo. I have noticed that names of young people in this lovely, fresh fish,sandy beach town called Labason are more than one ; unlike before that we have only one. And that's it.

Time flies.Technology comes. The world changes its paces. And it's called industrial revolution. The speed of communication is crazy. The universe sinks deeper and deeper into its mystery.

We are not crazy, the world is. And you'll find sane meaning in paradox. " A paradox is an idea that is contrary to popular opinion, something that seems to contradict common sense and yet is true." If you accept paradoxes, you are free from the craziness of this planet. For the rest of your life, follow the route that you believe is "right and good and true" because it make sense to you.

And it truly makes sense when Gary G Recentes Daguplo hatched an idea of uniting Labasonians globally.

"A story is told of a young Egyptian foreman who was supervising the laying of the foundation of one of the pharaoh's pyramids. The foreman was out in the hot sun, encouraging, watching and correcting the work. Whenever he found that the massive stones did not fit perfectly, he would have them realigned until they were just right.

Another foreman watched him, and finally came over to give him advice. " The foundation will all be under the ground. Nobody will see it." he said, shaking his head. "Don't worry about it. Nobody will know."

"I will know," the young foreman replied, continuing his work.

When you do what is right and good and true, you will know, and you will remember. That will give you all the personal meaning you need."

This monumental task that Gary did will be recognized but soon it will join with the dust in the cycles of time. What's salient is WHO YOU ARE AS A PERSON. What matters is HOW YOU LIVE. If you live GENUINELY AND GENEROUSLY, who cares what this crazy and chaotic world says or remembers.

Just doing good is okey. This little thing of Gary's website brings a smile, lift the spirit of the Labasonians as they go through their daily grind in the different parts of the globe. Visiting the site brings nostalgia; evokes fun memories that drive worries away, a therapeutic effect physically and spiritually.

The good you do today will be oblivion tomorrow.

Do what is good, any which way.
