Random Building Thoughts - 2022-10-19

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

-------------- WORD! --------------  
 

The Flanked Circumpunct; 
Word! 
 
-------------- HUMOR --------------  
  

No. 
You're still not Grasping it Billy! 
You need to know this! 
Let me say it again, 
"and Under Low Breath!"
 
-------------- LEADER'S VALUES --------------  
 
 
 When you want to Understand why 
the Fraternity has gotten to where it is, 
 look at what its Leaders Value. 
You shall see for some 
that it is nothing more than 
those Superficial things of which 
we are asked by Ritual 
to Divest ourselves.
 
 -------------- CHALLENGE --------------  
 
COACH'S CHALLENGE
 
Building Better Builders 
Masonic Exercise #1: 
 
* Virtue is Developed 
by Divesting Vice and Superfluity.
* Virtue is a natural outcome 
of the Divestiture process. 
 
Exercise your commitment daily! 
 
How?
 
1) Take daily inventory 
of your Vs&Ss, 
what you are doing to divest them,
 your successes, 
your failures, 
your plans, 
your "adjustments", 
and your support(s).
2) Exercise what 
Freemasonry points toward. 
 
You shall find that your relationship 
with your self, and eventually with others, 
shall improve with every effort that you make.
 
 It's tough Work but it's well worth it. 
 
Good Luck my Brothers!
 
-------------- CHAINED --------------  
 
 

  Brothers who Believe 
All they need to know about Freemasonry 
is shared through Ritual 
are Correct. 
 
But don't let them Dictate your needs 
unless you want to be Chained 
to the same Cave Wall.
 
 -------------- ALLEGORY--------------  
 

IMAGINE...
 
Imagine if you will,
 Brothers no longer rushing through their Masonic Work
and taking time to Savor each Degree. 
 
Imagine Brothers
 investing in the successful Transformation of others, 
and themselves. 
 
Imagine a world 
where members were truly Nurtured 
to Become much Better People. 
 
Imagine what your life would be like 
if such heartfelt Imaginings took root, 
were nurtured and grew strong.
 
Imagine That!
 
-------------- VALUES... --------------  
 
 
Dogmatically Justified Fraternal Incivility
 is a good Indication 
that a Brother places more Value 
upon Ritual and Rules 
than the bond and Relationship 
he has with his Brother.
 
-------------- CHARACTER --------------  
 
  
When Words are not Acted upon as Conveyed, 
the Obligation goes Unsupported.
 
-------------- WALKING UPON --------------  
 
 

  If you examine very closely 
the Surface upon which some Brothers Walk, 
there you shall find just above it
an Imaginary film of water.
 
 -------------- MYTH --------------  
 
 "Desire 
for mortal gains
and fear of loss 
hold you back 
from giving yourself 
to life."
-- Joseph Campbell, 
"A Joseph Campbell Companion: 
Reflections on the Art of Living"
 
More than you might realize.
 
-------------- PAST MASTERS! --------------  
 
 
 TALKING with DINOSAURS
Meeting with Old Masters

(I've had some truly awesome talks 
with old timers.)
 
-------------- TRY IT! --------------  
 
 
KEEP CALM 
&
TRY YOUR SQUARE
 
  -------------- FAN IT! --------------  
 

-------------- RAISED OR RESURRECTED? --------------
