 -------------- CHALLENGE! -------------- 

 

When you Enter, 

You are Good...
...when you Exit 

you should be Better than Good
or you have Failed Your Mission!
 
-----------

 
THE COACH'S CHALLENGE:
 
Based upon the statement,
"Masonry is a Moral Science",
define "good"
and then define 

"better than good".
 
Begin!

 

-------------- 360!? --------------  

 

 

-------------- HUMOR --------------  

 

 

"Remember Your Oats Brothers!!!!"
-- Bro. Tom Accuosti

 

-------------- CHARACTER --------------  

 

You can't Enter without Chalk. 

Once through the door, 

you're given opportunity to Embrace Clay.

 But should neither be Authentic, 

your Charcoal shall nev'r ignite 

and Masonry shall remain Lost to you.   

 

For Further Light:
CCC!

-------------- CHALLENGE --------------  

-------------- FACE IT! --------------  

 

 Courage: that emotion which screams 

"I will face and willingly suffer any danger I must 

because any alternative would show me 

to dishonor, disrespect and disregard 

what I know I must protect."

 

-------------- LOGIC --------------  

 

 

 Flawless Logic

 is no guarantee of a Rightful Conclusion, 

Especially when the Heart 

has yet to Fully Develop to Maturity.

 

-------------- APPLY IT! --------------   

 

 

Unless You're Applying It 

In Every Aspect of Your Life, 

You Can't Honestly Show 

That You Truly Understand It.

 

-------------- PSA! --------------  

 

-------------- OBSERVE! --------------  

-------------- ACYROLOGIA --------------  

 

...and used most effectively

 to taunt, tease and mock others 

at times as well...

 

-------------- CREATE THEM! -------------- 

  

-------------- WORK! --------------  

 

Wonder not at what causes Craft Degradation or Improvement 

when you Pass Candidates. 

Apprentice Work develops Hearing in your Heart, 

Song in your Spirit 

and Sight in your Soul. 

Without this Work, 

you remain deaf, dumb and blind to humanity. 

Your Choices now Build the Craft of our next Generations. 

 

-------------- MYTH --------------  

 

 

-------------- RUFFIAN! -------------- 

 

 

-------------- YOU ARE! -------------- 

 

 

-------------- MOB ROLE! --------------  

 

"Symbols are freedom of expression, as is speech, as is art. 

What we do not have the freedom to do, even as pirates, 

is express ourselves on someone to their physical harm. 

Those who advocate censorship of symbols and words 

better hope they are not the next target. 

It becomes a matter of mob rule."

-- Michelle Snyder

 

-------------- LOGICAL FALLACIES --------------

is now complete & available. 9 episodes in all!

 

ENJOY!

 

-------------- END --------------

 Be Well and Travel Light!
