Random Building Thoughts - 2022-10-05

 

-------------- HUMOR --------------  
 
 

-------------- CHARACTER --------------  
 
 
You're not a Lighthouse
 just because you have 
Memorized a bunch of words 
and can repeat them back on demand.
 
Seek to understand! 
 
For Further Light:
-------------- CHALLENGE --------------  
 

How Do You Better This Day? 

-------------- PRECEDENCE --------------  
 
 
When you do not Object to the Objectionable, 
the Objectionable Quietly Becomes Acceptable.
 

-------------- ALLEGORY-------------- 
 

When you're unwilling to raise your arm 
to point at your naked emperor, 
then there's something much more important
that you have yet to Raise.
 
Seek to see what is truly there! 
 
 -------------- WELL? --------------  
 
  
Have you been exposed to the Jubela Virus? 
If so, check for the following symptoms?
 
1) Sore Throat
2) Chest Pains
3) Pounding Headache

But Don't Worry! 
Although a Grave condition,
it'll Pass.
 
-------------- MYTHOLOGY -------------- 
 
 
Freemasonic Mythology! 
Ya can't Help but Get Swept Away by It! 
Take Care in What's Swept your Way.
 
For Further Light:
MYTHOLOGY 

 
-------------- REALLY! --------------
 
 
 
 Masters know the difference 
between Performances 
and Authentically Being the Real Things. 
The Former are Brothers 
who are not the Real Things 
Acting as if they were. 
It is Behavior Based. 
 
The Latter are the Real Things. 
 It is Being Based.
 
-------------- MYTH --------------   
 

“Apocalypse does not point to a fiery Armageddon 
but to the fact that our ignorance 
and our complacency are coming to an end… 
The exclusivism of there being only one way 
in which we can be saved, 
the idea that there is a single religious group 
that is in sole possession of the truth
—that is the world as we know it that must pass away. 
What is the kingdom? 
It lies in our realization of 
the ubiquity of the divine presence in our neighbors, 
in our enemies, in all of us.”
Joseph Campbell,  
Thou Art That: 
Transforming Religious Metaphor 
 
-------------- MASTERY --------------  
 

 
Mastery is the Ability to 
Consistently & Daringly Make Masterpieces 
out the Mistakes & Junk 
upon which others stop Working.
 
-------------- IN-LINE -------------- 
 

Get in Line and ...
INHERIT THE GAVEL
at a lodge near you
 
-------------- DUES -------------- 
 
 
 Raising Dues does not make for Bettered Brothers. 
Bettered Brothers make for Raised Dues. 
Find the Lodge that Embraces the Latter 
and Let Go of those that Embrace the Former.
 
-------------- EAME -------------- 
 
 
I received a call recently from a Brother
accusing me of writing a covert Masonic Workbook
on "Circumscribing & Subduing Passions & Desires."
 
He said that the book was littered with
covert Masonic references that help Masons complete
the Work of the EA Degree.
 
When asked how he knew this,
he said the title of the book was a dead give-away:
E.A.M.E. (as in, "Entered Apprentice Masonic Education.")
 
Coach wonders how many other Brothers figured out the code too.
 
There IS hope for Masonry!
 
(Found only on Amazon...)   

 
-------------- ANGLES -------------- 


Freemasonic Paths have the Rite Angles. 
Masonic Paths have the Right Angles. 
 
For Further Light:
 
 -------------- END --------------

 Be Well and Travel Light!
