-------------- HUMOR --------------
When you know it's time
to change out your hearing aid batteries.
-------------- CHARACTER --------------
Lodges are like Colleges,
and when you Attend Either to get a Degree,
Rather
than the Education that Each Affords you,
you won't get True Value from
Either.

I can't stress more firmly how important
understanding and practicing
the core concepts
presented in this blog post
are to the sanctity of fraternal bonds.
When you get blocked
for calling someone out in public,
try real hard to understand
that you likely violated
the very core of what you claim you hold sacred.

-------------- ACCEPTING DISTRACTIONS --------------
-------------- PASSIONS... --------------
Anger is an extremely useful emotion. It occurs when you perceive that you are “called to action to protect and cause change”. Protection and Change are different sides of the same coin and hence they are intimately entangled for in making effort to do one you must do the other to be effective.
When you experience Anger, your Soul is telling you that you are Perceiving a situation where Protection and Change are Desired and potentially required for Protection and Change. When you try to ignore this emotion, and take no action to honor what your Soul is telling you, the very thing that it is telling you will gnaw at your insides until dealt with effectively (Remorse).
The Mature action to take when experiencing this emotion is to ask yourself immediately when it first comes up “what it was that you were perceiving when it did”. When you examine the triggering situation, you'll see that the situation that you perceived required you “to Take Action to Protect and Cause Change”. It is NEVER a mistake “to take action to protect and cause change”. It is ALWAYS a mistake "to not take action and cause change" when situations demand this of you. The only caveat to this action is to make sure a Mature Action is Taken. That requires Assertive Civility in the face of possible Overwhelming Incivility or Unexpected Deviations from what you thought to be assured about your life.
In the end, when you do take Mature actions you shall see that whatever you do, it truly was driven by that call by your Soul to deal effectively with the changes you perceive and the necessity to be engaged in life in a wholesome manner. One's Anger should NEVER be dismissed. It should be embraced, understood and acted upon, MATURELY!
If you do not believe me, ask that Guy in his Father's House who overturned some tables. I'm sure He was justified in His actions.

The Soul Becomes

Due
to Poor or No

Thick Forests of Ignorance.

-------------- FULL RESPONSIBILITY! --------------
Builders
are people who accept full responsibility
for Maturing themselves.
They
don't believe and no longer accept
that others shall do this Maturing
for them in any way.
They seek God's Guidance in this great and
important undertaking
and, through commitment and diligence,
become
Builders of themselves.
Brotherly Love and Affection,
including any
points of Fellowship
are merely symptoms of this acceptance and
undertaking.
You cannot reasonably expect these symptoms
from anyone who
has yet to Obligate themselves fully
to this end and remain true to
this Obligation.
This book Overtly presents an extremely plausible and well-supported theory as to:
1) what the Craft actually is,
2) how what it does came into being,
3) its true Purpose, and
4) how its Practice affects you personally.
But in reality, it is Covertly a Purposeful Allegory of your Human Conditioning that Explains in Clear Detail how every organization, institution, religion, society, and group you have ever joined Invites you to Participate.
Don't read it unless you truly want to have your Hoodwink removed so that you can Properly Position yourself to Make the Most out of your Involvement, in life!
