-------------- BE REASONABLE --------------
You
cannot Reasonably Expect
Improvement in Yourself
and the Society in
General
when you Purposefully Substitute
the Actual Improvement Work
with Titles for Just Showing Up.
FILED UNDER: Don't M.O.P.E.!
Masonry's Osmotic Principle Exemplified (M.O.P.E.)
Surrounding yourself with good men
believing that, by just being in their presence,
you will absorb some of their goodness into your manner.
-------------- GRAVES --------------
Masonic
Secrets are so well Hidden
that many Brothers go to their graves
never
realizing that they missed seeing them,
too often right before their
eyes.
-------------- CHARACTER --------------
Vices
and Superfluities
are but a few of the impurities
that prevent Cement
from tempering properly.
Divestment of them is one of many reasons
the
Apprentice Work is necessary
before Masons are encouraged to lift their
Trowels.
You shall know
You shall know
when a man has taken upon himself
an Obligation to improve
himself
to the best of his ability;
he is a Mason.
You shall also know
when a man has merely stated
that he has taken such an Obligation
upon
himself
and has changed nothing in his manner
showing that he is
honoring and abiding by it.
What would you call such a man?
-------------- MYTH --------------
-------------- REMAIN CIVIL & DECENT --------------
It
shall not be by lack of Knowledge
that Civilization fails.
It shall by
the deliberate ignore-ance
of the Civility and Decency that Builds it.
What?! No Innovations?!?!
For Further Light:
NO!
NO!
-------------- END --------------
Be Well and Travel Light!
